Red Rock Donnybrook had been given permission for a development scaled back from its original ambitions for a 10 storey, 225 bed space facility

Third party appeals against the proposed student accommodation in Donnybrook, Dublin 4 have been lodged with An Bord Pleanála. File photograph

It had initially lodged plans for a 10 storey, 225 bed space scheme at lands at the Circle K Petrol Station at the junction of Donnybrook Road and Brookvale Road, Donnybrook. Chairman of the Eglinton Residents’ Association, Robin Mandal, told the appeals board the proposal “would constitute over-development of the site by virtue of its height, scale, bulk and massing at this prominent site”.

In the other appeal, the Clarkes contended the planned development was “inappropriate and totally at variance with the scale of Donnybrook village”. They contended that the proposed development represents over development of the site and would result in a most unsatisfactory monolithic building, out of character with the scale of Donnybrook village.
