Plans lodged with council for new neighbourhood with over 100 homes on Cork City's northside

Proposed development comprises 53 apartments and 51 houses on a part-brownfield, part-greenfield site at Popes Hill in Blackpool 

A military cemetery borders the northwest side of the site, while Collins Barracks is located on the eastern and south-eastern edge of the site.

Plans for a large-scale residential development spanning more than 100 homes on the northside of Cork City have been submitted to local planners.

Developer Pontorac Limited has lodged plans to demolish a terrace of four homes, three of which are derelict, at Popes Hill, Popes Road in Blackpool and replace them with 104 new residential units.
