Jordan loses planning battle with neighbour

Neil Jordan has lost his long running planning battle with his next-door neighbour, Robin Power, over an 11m sq bathing shelter.

It follows An Bord Pleanála granting planning retention to Mr Power for the 3m-high bathing area in his garden on millionaires’ row at Sorrento Terrace in Dalkey, Co Dublin.

The retention application by Mr Power for the shelter at No 8 Sorrento has been opposed all the way by Mr Jordan and his wife Brenda Rawn, who own the adjoining Nos 6 and 7.
