Golf club told to knock 8ft wall

DOONBEG Golf Club has been given until the end of July to demolish an eight-foot high wall reportedly built without planning permission.

In an enforcement notice served on the club under the planning acts, Clare County Council warned it will have no option but to initiate legal proceedings unless the wall is demolished. A July 29 deadline has been set for the wall to be taken down.

The council’s move came more than four months after An Bord Pleanála refused planning retention to the club for the wall following an appeal by Cree man, James McNulty that overturned a council decision to give the wall the go-ahead.
