The council’s formal grounds for this decision. Planner assessment and later appeal outcomes are separate.

  1. The subject site within the “HA” High Amenity zoning objective, is within the Liffey Valley Special Amenity Area Order (SAAO), is within a Highly Sensitive Landscape, and in a Preservation of Views area, having regard to the Fingal Development Plan 2023-2029. The freeform stretch tent supported by 12 no. posts (canopy structure) by virtue of its size and design is a visual form of incremental intensification of the beer garden serving Strawberry Hall pub which materially urbanises and visually intrudes upon the protected landscape. In this regard, the development visually interferes with the “HA” High Amenity area, the Preservation of Views along Lower Road and the natural interest and beauty of the sensitive landscape associated with the special amenity value protected under the Liffey Valley Special Amenity Area Order (SAAO). The development is considered visually disharmonious and results in incremental inappropriate development contrary to Policies GINHP26, GINHP27, GINHP28 and Objective GINHO67 of the Fingal Development Plan 2023-2029 and will set an inappropriate precedent for other similar forms of development. The development is therefore contrary to the proper planning and sustainable development of the area.
