New two-storey dwelling with treatment plant and percolation area

Mark and Aideen Storey have submitted a planning application to Monaghan County Council for a new two‑storey residence at Mountain Lodge Demesne, situated just outside Castleblayney in County Monaghan. The proposal includes a range of site works designed to manage the property’s water needs. A dedicated treatment plant would process domestic wastewater, while a percolation area would allow the treated water to be safely absorbed into the ground. The developers also plan to construct a new entrance to the demesne, along with the necessary ancillary works to support the new dwelling.

The application outlines the layout of the house, the positioning of the treatment plant and percolation area, and the proposed access improvements. It is intended to meet local planning regulations and to minimise environmental impact on the surrounding landscape. The Storeys have indicated that the development will be carried out in a manner that respects the character of the area and complies with all relevant statutory requirements.

The council will review the application against planning policy and environmental guidelines before deciding whether to grant permission. Residents and interested parties can view the full application details on the Monaghan County Council website. For more information, see the Monaghan County Council planning portal.
