Planning has been granted, following appeal, for a €578k pastoral centre in Kilcock, Co Kildare.
The original application, by Kildare and Leighlin Diocesan Trust, was made on March 5 2026 with respect to works at St Coca's Parish Church, Church Street, Kilcock, Co Kildare.
According to Construction Information Services (CIS), detailed plans were refused on April 20 2026.
