Developer appeals refusal of Aldi supermarket on Cork's Skehard Road

Lyonshall said the development is appropriate for the site in question

Cork City Council had said the development would be visually obtrusive and would overshadow adjoining properties.

A developer has appealed a decision by Cork City Council to refuse permission for a mixed-use development, including an Aldi supermarket, in Cork city.

Proposed for the Skehard Road, Lyonshall Limited had been refused permission for the supermarket, as well as 28 residential units and a cafe close to SuperValu.
