To remove the existing front boundary wall servicing an existing dwelling house together

Mel Farrell has applied to Longford County Council for permission to remove the existing front boundary wall that services a dwelling house on School Land in Ballinalee, Co Longford (N39 T9Y5). The proposal also includes relocating the wall and creating a vehicular entrance into the dwelling, together with all ancillary site works.

The application was submitted on 8 May 2026 under reference 2660155. It lists architect/agent Brendan McVeigh as the professional responsible for the design work. On 23 June 2026 the council issued a conditional decision, indicating that approval will be granted provided certain conditions are met and that the final determination is due by 2 July 2026.

The request follows a pattern of local planning activity in Ballinalee, where other developments such as agricultural sheds and dormer-type dwelling houses have recently been approved. The council’s decision reflects its ongoing review of site works that affect existing properties and access routes within the area.

For further details consult the Longford County Council planning file (Reference 2660155).
