The site is currently accessed via the R403 Celbridge - Prosperous Road through the Brooklands Housing Estate. The internal road network of the Brooklands Housing Estate has been designed to allow future access into the subject site. An informal pedestrian access is currently possible from Alexandra Walk. There is a formal riverside walk along the open space of Alexandra Walk along the River Liffey. 3.0 Proposed Strategic Housing Development The proposed development would comprise of 333 no. residential units, the construction of a childcare facility, a communal/community building and the provision of 3 new vehicular/ pedestrian accesses points.

A refusal of permission is recommended based on the population allocation and the core strategy, and the location of the vehicular route through F2, Strategic Open Space, zoned lands, further detailed below. ABP-308943-20 Inspector’s Report Page 5 of 117 A list of recommended conditions was not received from the PA although the interdepartmental reports include recommended conditions from the different sections of Kildare County Council. The submission has been summarised below. Views of elected members The views of the elected members are presented in Appendix B of the C.E Report and are summarised below: • A SHD proposal has been previously refused by ABP and this reason has not been addressed. • The Core Strategy figures have changed since the previous application. • There are two separate current planning applications for the site. • The carbon effect and lack of public transport is a major concern. • The bus service does not have the capacity to serve Dublin. • The highest density apartment blocks are located furthest from the town centre and would cause additional traffic in an already congested town. • The councils report and members comments were never commented on by ABP. • The creche would attract additional traffic from other estates. • The density is too high. • The surrounding estates will be impacted on by the movement of traffic. • The school’s assessment capacity is poor and the schools in the area are oversubscribed. • The woodland area on the site was removed before the submission of the application. • Query if the material contravention statement referred to the Core Strategy. • There are flood risk measures in relation to the linear park. • A train station is needed in Clane to assist the public transport. ABP-308943-20 Inspector’s Report Page 6 of 117 • The rate of population growth for the application goes against the CDP. C.E recommendation for refusal The PA considers the proposed development is contrary to the policies of the Kildare County Development Plan 2017-2023 and the Clane Local Areas Plan 2017-2023 and recommend two reasons for refusal detailed below: 1. Having regard to the status of Clane as a Town in the Settlement Hierarchy of Kildare County Development Plan 2017-2023 (as varied), the Housing Unit Allocation is 145 no. dwellings for all of Clane in the Kildare County Development Plan and the density indicated within the Clane Local Area Plan 2017-2023 for the application site (Key Development Area 1), the density and number of residential units proposed would distort the Core and Settlement Strategy figures set out in the Kildare County Development Plan 2017-2023, would be contrary to the planned housing provision for Clane as set out in the Plan, would contravene the development strategy of Clane and projected residential capacity outlined for this Key Development Area as set out in the Clane Local Area Plan 2017-2023. The proposed development would be contrary to Section 4.3 of the Eastern and Midland Regional Assembly’s Regional Spatial Economic Strategy which seeks a graded reduction in residential densities in towns and villages commensurate to the existing built environment to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area. 2. A section of the proposed development site is located in an area zoned “F2” Strategic Open Space, the objective of which is “to preserve, provide for an improve recreational amenity, open space and green infrastructure networks”. The proposed layout includes the provision of a vehicular access route through this F2 zoned lands. In this regard it is considered that the proposed development would materially contravene the F2 zoning objective and would undermine the objective of this F2 zoned lands as per the Clane Local Area Plan 2017-2023. Furthermore, the proposed vehicular access route across Strategic Open Space lands would contravene Green Infrastructure Objectives GIO1.2 and GIO1.3 which seeks to protect, reduce fragmentation, and enhance Green Infrastructure in Clane. Furthermore, the location of proposed vehicular route in the Strategic Open Space contravenes GIO1.6 of ABP-308943-20 Inspector’s Report Page 7 of 117 the Clane Local Area Plan 2017-2023

  • A History of Donore House, Co Kildare
    A history of Donore House in County Kildare by Padraig O'Morain Introduction Donore House, built in the late 18th century, had all but vanished by the late 20th century. Mortgaged many times over in its early years, “the survival of Donore House as a great mansion house was in danger from its very beginning” (Boylan & Dempsey 1998-9). Donore House had been preceded by Donore Castle, a nearby seat of the FitzGerald family, including Gerald FitzGerald who famously escaped from the Castle following the Silken Thomas rebellion in 1534 and who went on to become the 11th earl of Kildare. In compiling this brief account I wish to acknowledge the work of Lena Boylan and Michael Dempsey whose article Donore near Carragh in the Barony of Clane, published in the Journal of the Kildare Archeological Society, 1998-9, Vol XVIII, Part IV, was of invaluable help. Tom Tierney’s Our Family History, published privately in 2002, provides fascinating information about events concerning Donore House in the late 19th century. Donore House The mansion known as Donore House was built in the late 18th century when the Hussey family, then in possession of Donore estate, decided to leave Donore Castle. The roots of the Hussey family lay in Mulhussey, Co Meath. Walter Hussey, from Mulhussey, had bought Donore in 1690. Donore Castle seems to have been in a poor state of repair at the time. The Deeds note that Donore estate included ‘one Castle with a Demolished Hall adjoining.’ It is hardly surprising, therefore, that more than half a century later Walter’s son Edward built a new residence.

  • Archive Fact Sheet: Guinness Liffey Barges
    Archive Fact Sheet: Guinness Liffey Barges Guinness barges at Victoria Quay Jetty c. 1910 GDB/DB05/0055 In the 1870’s the Guinness site expanded northwards to bound the river Liffey and in 1873, the Company built their own jetty on the river Liffey. This enabled barges to load and unload wooden casks of GUINNESS directly at the gates of the Guinness Brewery for the first time. The first Liffey barges used by Guinness, which were steam operated, were built at this time. These early barges were all named after rivers around Ireland eg Lagan, Shannon, Slaney, Foyle, Moy. The first barge, the Lagan, was built by Harland and Wolfe at their Belfast shipyard. The Dublin engineering foundry, Ross and Walpole, built all other barges. If you have any further questions about Guinness history please contact us at: Guinness Archive, GUINNESS STOREHOUSE®, St. James's Gate, Dublin 8. Telephone: +353 1 471 4557. E-mail: [email protected] Opening Hours: Mon –Fri 09:30 to 17.00 by appointment. The GUINNESS® and GUINNESS STOREHOUSE® words and associated logos are trade marks In 1927 Guinness introduced a new type of barge known as the ‘Farmleigh’ type barge. These second evolution of barges were named after placenames around Dublin eg Farmleigh, Castleknock, Killiney. The barges were built by Vickers (Ireland) Ltd in the Liffey Dockyard, with design input from the Guinness engineers. These new type barges could carry 87 tons of cargo, roughly three hundred hogsheads of GUINNESS. The one mile journey from the Brewery’s jetty to Dublin Port took approx.
