Officer's Report

The site represents the curtilage of "Howth", an existing cottage situated on the western side of the Ballamodha Straight opposite "Bankfield Cottage" and north of Wigan Lane.

The site has a planning history including the following:

03/1590 - conversion and extension of existing barn to a dwelling an creation of new driveway and access - refused 13.2.04 for reasons relating to the sun room/conservatory.

03/1648 - conversion and extension of existing barn to a dwelling and creation of new driveway and access - refused 13.2.04 for reasons relating to the design of the detailing.

The principle was not at issue with either of these applications.

04/0530 proposed the conversion and extension and creation of a new access and was approved.

Now proposed is a down-scaling of the scheme which was approved under 04/0530. The detailing is much more simple, chimneys and timber boarding is omitted and the scale of the new building has been reduced and this is an improvement.
