How we work this out
Applications whose site outline (or map point) falls on this property. 'No sign building has started' means we found no notice to the council's building control office; small jobs don't always file one, so ask. A missing completion certificate is not proof of a problem: an owner can opt out of official sign-off for a house or extension built for themselves.
The site zoning, protection, tax, flood
No zoning in the plans we hold.
Not on this site: protected building, heritage inventory, monument zone, conservation area, EU nature site, EU bird site, natural heritage area, tree order, landslide risk, derelict list.

How we work this out
'On this site' means the record's own map outline touches the registered parcel (or a 12 m circle round the point where there is no parcel). Only the council's own list confirms a protected building; ask the council if in doubt. The OPW flood map's licence lets us show a yes/no only.

How we work this out
Each row is a dated fact from a public register: no score and no forecast. Derelict buildings come from the council's register; stalled builds told the council they were starting 3+ years ago and were never signed off; approved schemes are 10+ homes with no notice that building started; council land sales are notices to councillors; empty zoned land is on the vacant land tax map.

How we work this out
Descriptions are shortened by the national planning database (to 80 characters in Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, 70 in Fingal), and it does not publish applicants' names.
Extensions and refusals near you 0 extensions within 250 m
No home extensions within 250 m in 5 years.
Refused within 100 m 0 in 5 years
Nothing refused this close in 5 years.
How we work this out
Home extensions are read from the application's description (extension, attic or dormer, porch, garage conversion, garden room), so a few may be missed or mislabelled. The kind is the first that fits: a dormer with a rear extension counts as a dormer. Refusal reasons come from An Coimisiún Pleanála's inspector reports, so they exist only where the refusal was appealed (Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown so far). The council's own reasons are on its planning file.
Building work nearby 0 in 3 years
No building work started nearby.
How we work this out
Each row is a notice the builder sent to the council's building control office before work started. One notice can cover many homes. 'Signed off as finished' means a completion certificate is on file; work done under an opt-out or a short notice doesn't need one.

Schemes of 10 or more homes approved since 2019, from the council and An Coimisiún Pleanála registers. 'Building started' means the builder told the council's building control office that work was starting (a commencement notice).

How we work this out
Homes approved counts schemes of 10 or more homes (one-off houses are not included). Homes started counts every home in a notice that building work was starting. The council figure is the middle value across the council's built-up squares of the same area (3.1 km², about a 1 km circle), so half of them saw more and half fewer.
