An architect’s impression of the planned home

Dublin City Council (DCC) has refused planning permission for contentious plans by developer Keith Craddock to construct a 38-unit accommodation block for elderly members of religious orders in need of care.

DCC refused Mr Craddock’s Granville Developments Ltd planning permission for the three-storey residential accommodation comprising 38 en-suite bedrooms at Haddington Place in Ballsbridge on a site to the rear of Sisters of The Holy Faith after the Department of Education and locals objected.
