The mural of Patrick Foley in Limerick

Two Limerick women are facing having to remove a controversial mural honouring a deceased friend from a cottage he gifted them in his will after An Bord Pleanála refused them planning permission for the painting.

The board rejected an appeal by Aoife Kiely and Darlene O’Carroll against the decision of Limerick City and County Council to turn down their application for retention permission for the mural depicting their late friend, Patrick Foley.
