Challenge to Shanakiel redevelopment plans
Last December, An Bord Pleanála gave the go ahead to redevelop the site of Shanakiel Hospital, which will include the redevelopment of Shanakiel House —which was built in the mid-1700s — and the construction of two new detached dwellings.
As part of that proposal several structures, including the former hospital building, stables dating to the 1700s, and other ancillary buildings are to be demolished.
