To construct a (1) A cattle shed which will consist of dry bedded pens and feeding

Eddie Lynch has lodged a planning application with Cavan County Council to build a new cattle shed and a sheep shed on his land at Drumbannow, Loughduff, Co Cavan (postcode H12 K611). The proposal, recorded as application 2615, calls for a cattle shed that will contain dry‑bedded pens and a feeding passage, and a sheep shed that will feature a slatted area with a slurry‑holding tank beneath, together with dry‑bedded pens and all associated site works.

The application was received by the council on 12 May 2026. A decision was scheduled for 26 August 2026, and the council issued a conditional decision on 24 August 2026. The conditional nature of the decision means that the applicant must meet any conditions set by the council before construction can proceed.

The planning file for the Drumbannow site is part of a broader portfolio of developments in Co Cavan. While the council has recently allocated more than €10 million under the Croí Cónaithe Vacant Property Refurbishment Grant to support the restoration of vacant homes, the cattle and sheep shed proposal is a separate agricultural development and is not linked to that grant.

For further details on the application and the council’s decision, see the Cavan County Council planning file 2615.
