Pretty sickening that once again public access to amenities isn’t being prioritised by the state. The reduction in access to carton house , k club, castletown, luggala estate (a few off the top of my head) is making Ireland a poorer place for us to live. There are so few public rights of way that these estates are some of the few green areas most have access to.

  3. You can walk up from the village. Simple solution to this, the land is currently not zoned for residential housing, so keep it that way and it will he sold on.

  4. There’s a lot of protests going on at the moment which seem to be making an impact so haven’t given up hope!

  5. I’ve been walking there for 20 odd years
    A group of us from Leixlip have send tonnes of emails to OPW and local TD’s.
    Seems something is being done now.

    OPW should have purchased the land when they had the opportunity. If they go CPO it’s going to cost substantially more…… shower of gobshites.

  6. Public access is being restricted at one side. And this one side didn’t always exist prior. Access to the house via Celbridge will still be in place.

  7. I like castle town but that area is not the part most people walk around. I would much rather see some houses out there so people can have a place to live.

  8. I heard there’s a sponsored traffic jam going on tomorrow. Residents gonna clog up the whole town.

  9. This smells of nimby.

    Right beside the motorway and 3km from the train station. Seems like good place for residential development.

  11. An absolute gem on the Liffey, seriously impressive grounds surprised the tourists haven’t found it.
