More than 100 social housing units approved for Cork town

Cork city councillors approved Part 8 planning for a 64-unit housing estate in Ballincollig and a 43-unit social housing development at Denroches Cross.

Planning has been granted for more than 100 social housing units on the southside of Cork City — including the first social housing estate in a town since it became part of the extended city last year.

City councillors approved Part 8 planning for a 64-unit housing estate in Ballincollig, just southwest of the Poulavone roundabout.
