Planning appeals likely at Cork's Good Shepherd  convent

Plans for a residential development at the Sunday’s Well site of the former Good Shepherd convent in Cork City are likely to be the subject of planning appeals after considerable local objection.

The scheme, which was permitted this week by Cork City Council, has already been the subject of objections from dozens of local residents and public representatives.

The main concerns are about the impact on the l community, whose population they said would be significantly increased.
