Plan to alter interior of cathedral turned down

AN Bord Pleanála has turned down a controversial proposal to rearrange the interior of St Colman’s Cathedral in Cobh, Co Cork.

But this may not be the end of the long-running saga as the instigator of the plan, Bishop John Magee, could seek a judicial review of the decision.

The Diocese of Cloyne said yesterday it was too early for them to decide on their next course of action.
