G & D Glynn Kiltormer Ltd has lodged a request for built‑amendment permission on its nursing home premises in Ballinasloe, Co Galway. The application refers back to the granted planning reference 55552 and seeks changes that will alter the building’s footprint and layout.

Under the proposed amendments the middle annex of the existing structure would be omitted, while a new conservatory is to be added. An external covered area is also planned, together with associated alterations to windows and doors. The company has confirmed that these changes do not increase the overall floor area granted in the original plan.

In addition to the main building works, the application seeks retention permission for two shed outbuildings situated at the rear of the nursing home. These sheds are currently used as office, laundry and storage spaces. Two portacabins – one positioned on the side and another at the rear – will also be retained for similar uses.

The applicant is requesting an amendment to the position of the main road access and car‑parking areas that were originally set out in planning reference 55552. This would adjust how visitors and staff enter and leave the site.

A further element of the application involves a change of use for one of the sheds, converting it into a pet crematorium facility with associated services and installations. The proposed facility would be located at Kiltormer East, within the nursing home complex in Ballinasloe (postcode H53 XY63).

The planning permission is still pending review by Galway County Council. If approved, the changes will allow G & D Glynn Kiltormer Ltd to modify its existing nursing home infrastructure while maintaining the overall footprint and providing additional services for residents and their families.

For further details see the Galway County Council planning file.
