President's house is turned down by appeal board

Archiseek / Ireland / News / 2001 / February 08 2001: President's house is turned down by appeal board

The appeals board upheld an appeal by An Taisce against Roscommon County Council's decision last September to grant permission for the proposed two-storey house overlooking Lough Eidin, west of Carrickon-Shannon.
