Proposed development

permission for development at St. Brigid’s Hospital, Ardee, Co. Louth, which is listed as a protected structure under the current Louth County Development Plan (RPS no. Lhs017-038) and listed on the NIAH (ref. 13823032). It is proposed to carry out refurbishment works to the 3 no. building blocks i.e. the left wing, central block and the right wing. The proposed works consist of: (a) the careful removal of the existing original timber windows on the central block clock tower and non-original metal and pvc windows from the remainder of the building blocks as mentioned above, (b) the installation of replacement timber windows to the front face of the central block and slimline, triple-glazed thermally broken aluminium windows, powder coated white, to the rest of the building. It is proposed to replicate, as much as practicable, the original fenestration that can be gleaned from historical photographs. Where these are not available, it shall be assumed that the fenestration of the replacement windows would have replicated the windows that were being replaced. (c) Remove existing external doors and replace with new hardwood door to the main entrance of the central block and high-performance aluminium doors elsewhere (d) carry out all associated works to make good reveals, heads, cills etc. in accordance with best conservation practice.

What happens next

Permission was granted on 5 Sept 2025. Third parties may appeal within four weeks; after that the permission is final and works can start once a commencement notice is lodged.
