Lott Lane, Kilcoole
t’s been quite for a year of ups and refusals on the planning front over in
Kilcoole, but all that looks set to change.
In September 2022, planning was refused for 56 houses on the main street, around the back of the Mollys, a big jump back from the 267 applied for in September 2018.
In August, Wicklow County Council put forward a development of 152 units on Lott Lane, promising an almost-equal split of social and affordable. Nine months later, and the Wicklow Planning site still doesn’t reveal what the frick is going on there.
And then, in May of this year, two applications in the same week, both situated in the town centre.
Situated east of Lott Lane and north of the existing Wellfield, pre-validation application no.23466 had
Dwyer Nolan Developments Ltd hoping for 50 houses, but ultimately their application was deemed incomplete. Over at Ballycrone on Cooldross Lane, Queequeg Ltd eventually got the thumbs up looking for their 12 houses on application no.23462…
And now, another application for Lott Lane, this time from Ciaran
and Simon Doyle, who are hoping to build 46 houses there.
Application no.2360348 reads…

Well looks like Kilcoole Village is surely becoming a town. I remember there as a child and it was quite quaint and when Glenroe was filmed there it was a lovely place to be. The rural parts of Kilcoole, Kilquade, Delgany and Kilpedder are on the way out unfortunately. Its really sad to see the demise of the community spirit and neighbourlyness gone in its place housing estates, new motorways, and dangerous country roads where traffic passes every other minute. We’ll soon have no fields left or hedgerows.
