Plan for new Lidl store in Fermoy on hold

Plans by Lidl to replace its shop in Fermoy, Co Cork, with a larger one are being put on hold following an objection by a member of the public.

This follows the lodging of an appeal with An Bord Pleanála against Cork County Council’s approval of the demolition of the existing Lidl store and of the disused Touch of Luxury carpet-and-furniture store on Courthouse Rd, Fermoy, and their replacement with a large, licensed discount foodstore.
