SURVIVORS have implored An Bord Pleanála to reject plans seeking to develop apartments and a creche on a former mother and baby home estate in Cork.
In November last year, MWB Two Ltd lodged a planning application with the planning board for 179-apartments in three blocks, as well as a creche, on privately owned land on the former Bessborough estate.
