Filley Park Lodge, Upper Dargle Road, Bray Co Wicklow

What’s proposed

two existing extensions to the rear of the existing single-storey detached house at Filley Park Lodge, Upper Dargle Road, Bray, Co Wicklow, Eircode A98XV99. The first extension (the single-storey extension to the rear of the original 1840’s house) was constructed in the early 1980’s, while the second extension (the two-storey extension to the rear of the first extension) was constructed in 1990. A car-port was constructed in the mid 1990’s, and this application also seeks retention permission for same. The application also seeks retention permission for the reinstatement and upgrading of a series of partially overgrown raised terraces at the end of the rear garden, and the provision of additional steps and safety rails to replace existing. It also seeks retention permission for the erection of large new fencing panels to provide a new “face” to the existing large boundary fencing panels already in existence on the site. Finally, it includes the provision of a new roller shutter door to replace the existing garage doors, and the provision of a new soakaway to absorb rainwater from the already-existing hardstanding areas. This application seeks to tidy-up the planning status of these historical elements of the house, while at the same time, applying for retention permission for the small number of recent works as here listed
