Planning application received: Permission to construct a two storey detached dwelling house and garage with wastewater treatment sy

Roscommon County Council has received a planning application from Cathal Compton, a member of the Clooncah electoral area in Strokestown, for a two‑storey detached dwelling house and an attached garage. The proposal also includes a wastewater treatment system to be installed on the site. The application is now under review by the council’s planning committee, which will consider the proposal against local planning policies and any relevant environmental assessments.

The application is part of a broader pattern of development activity in the area. Earlier this week the council was also presented with plans for a retirement village on an eight‑acre site at Farnbeg, on the Tarmonbarry side of Strokestown. That proposal, which could accommodate up to 80 homes, is still awaiting rezoning and a formal planning application. In addition, the council has announced a temporary closure of the R368 between Strokestown and Elphin for the next three days to carry out necessary improvement works, with diversions in place via the R369, N61 and N5.

For further details on the planning application and related local developments, see the Roscommon County Council planning portal.
