Third Time Unlucky…?

Honeybrook Cottage SAT2JULY22

e reported on the original planning application back on January 11th of this year, and a second shot on June 7th…

Wicklow County Council ruled that first application by the owner of Honeybrook Cottage in Delgany was incomplete.

And now, it turns out that Desmond Donegan’s second planning application to turn this historical Delgany site into a retail, offices and apartments mall has also been deemed incomplete.

Which means that a third planning application that calls for the destruction of the 18th century cottage has been nailed to the wall outside.

Erected on June 15th, with a decision date of August 8th, application no.22686 reads…

Demolition of existing single storey dwelling, garage and sheds.
3 No. retail/office units at ground floor level with a total floor area of 384sqm.

Alterations to existing services to provide connections to proposed developments; all together with associated site works including parking, new boundary treatments and other works necessary to complete this development
