An Bord Pleanála has upheld the decision of Longford County Council to refuse planning permission for the proposed development of a 169 metres single wind turbine within Kiernan Milling Mill Building at Granardkill, Granard.
Kiernan Milling, care of Galetech Energy Services of Clondargan, Stradone, County Cavan, appealed the July 14, 2020, decision of Longford Co Co planners.
However, their appeal was unsuccessful as the state body upheld the local authority’s decision and deemed that the proposed turbine development would seriously injure and interfere with the setting of Granard Motte and Bailey. It would also be contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
