For the construction of a bungalow type dwelling
Grainne Fitzsimons and Christopher Kiernan have applied to Cavan County Council for permission to construct a bungalow‑type dwelling at Carrickacroman in Bailieborough, Co Cavan. The proposal also includes a domestic garage, the creation of a new site entrance onto an existing laneway that leads to a public road, installation of a proprietary wastewater treatment unit and a percolation area, and completion of all ancillary site works.
The application was lodged on 24 April 2026 with the council’s planning department. Cavan County Council issued a conditional decision on 18 June 2026, indicating that the development is approved subject to certain conditions. The decision code “CONDITIONAL” suggests that the applicants will need to meet specific requirements before construction can commence.
The site at Carrickacroman lies within Bailieborough and falls under the jurisdiction of Cavan County Council’s planning authority. The council’s decision was made after reviewing the full description of the proposed works, which includes the bungalow, garage, new entrance, wastewater treatment system and ancillary works such as landscaping and access roads.
While the council has granted permission, the conditional nature of the approval means that the applicants must satisfy any stipulated conditions—such as environmental safeguards or traffic impact assessments—before work can begin. The decision was made in accordance with the council’s planning guidelines for residential developments within the county.
