HEADED ITEM NO. 4

Derelict site at Cruagh, Rockbrook

That the Manager include the property between house “Ardevin” and house “Crosty”, Cruagh, Rockbrook, Dublin 16 as a derelict site. There are old sheds boarded up. The area is part of a tourist walking trail for the County and this site lets down the scenic beauty of the Cruagh and Rockbrook area."
Submitted by:	Councillor P. Cosgrave	Reply

REPORT:

The property between "Ardevin" House and "Crosty" House Cruagh, Rockbrook, Dublin, l6 has been investigated by the Council's Derelict Sites Inspector.

The site in question, which appears to be aligned to or alongside “Crosty”,  has been deemed, by the Council's Inspector, to be non derelict within the meaning of the Derelict Sites Act, 1990, and no remedial works have been deemed necessary.  

The site is in the B zone and outside the DMP study area.  There is no marked walking route on Cruagh Road (R116) in this area and the Dublin Mountains Way is 600 metres away at its nearest point to the south running east-west.  There are no protected structures nearby.
