Under the provisions of the legislation the R.P.S. is an integral part of Limerick County Council’s Development Plan A protected structure is deemed, under the provisions of Section 2 of the Planning and Development Acts, 2000 to 2010, to consist of the following: (i) the interior of the structure, (ii) the land lying within the curtilage of the structure, (iii) any other structures lying within that curtilage and their interiors, and (iv) all fixtures and features which form part of the interior or exterior of any structure or structures referred to in subparagraph (i) or (iii)”. Elements comprising the fabric of the structure (which at first glance may not be considered to be of importance or significance), such as lath and plaster finishes, external render, window and door frames and their associated joinery and fixings (such as latches and catches, and so forth), glazing, natural slate roofing and the supporting structures, painted timber, as well as the more obvious elements of the structure such as decorative plasterwork, are deemed to be protected. Protection is also afforded to the plan and layout of the building. For example, an internal partition dividing the entrance hall from the stairwell or a wall that separates a sitting room from a dining room, and so forth. The overall planning policies and objectives for the protection of structures are set out in Chapter 7 (Environment and Heritage) of Volume 1. Full details of the Record of Protected Structures including maps clearly indicating the location of each structure are available for inspection at the offices of Limerick County Council. Volume 4 contains the Record of Protected Structures as it stands in February 2016. 1 Volume 3 Record of Protected Structures Amending the Record of Protected Structures Notwithstanding the fact that the Record of Protected Structures is an integral element of the County Development Plan 2010 – 2016, Part IV of the Planning and Development Acts 2000 – 2012 allows a planning authority to amend the Record as and when deemed necessary. Additions to, and removals from, the R.P.S. are governed by the provisions of Sections 53 – 55 of the Act.
