Kildare North TDs Meeting Minister Over Castletown Today

Tuesday, 3 October 2023 11:50

By Oisin Coyne

The four TDs are bringing their concerns about access to Castletown House in Celbridge to the Minister of Office of Public Works this afternoon

Junior Minister Patrick O'Donovan is meeting Kildare North's four TDs in relation to Castletown House in Celbridge.

Residents are worried about plans by developers to move a rear car park to the front of the landmark estate, as they say it will affect access to the house and traffic in the town.

The OPW last week was unable to reach an agreement with developers about access for the public to the estate.

Kevin Mullen, a Save Castletown campaigner, and Kildare North TD James Lawless spoke to Eoin Beatty on this morning's Kildare Today:
