Wexford GAA’s plans to expand their centre of excellence in Ferns have been put on hold after they were denied planning permission.

An Bord Pleanála have refused the county board approval to go ahead with new facilities such as extra pitches despite the application initially receiving the green light from the Wexford County Council. As well as additional playing surfaces, a new entrance was to be built.
