Planning application

65 Ballynagross Road, Downpatrick, BT30 7EQ

Awaiting decision Newry, Mourne and Down LA07/2026/0886/LBC Listed Building Consent

Still open. Anyone can comment while the consultation period runs, and comments go to the council rather than to us.

Proposal

Installation of a roof-integrated solar photovoltaic array using the GSE mounting system on the south-facing roof of the curtilage-listed former stable/agricultural building, together with associated cabling and electrical equipment. Underground cabling will connect the array to the existing electrical system. The building will continue in its existing domestic and storage use; no change of use is proposed. The development will generate renewable electricity for use on the estate.
