Skylight, rear dormer window, and attic storage conversion approved

Conditional retention granted on 21 April 2026

Michael McNeela has been allowed to keep alterations he's already made to his home on Brookville Avenue in Swinford. The work included installing a skylight in the roof, adding a dormer window at the back, and converting the attic into storage space. The council approved this on a retention basis, meaning he did the work first and got permission after.
