COMHAIRLE CONTAE FHINE GALL
FINGAL COUNTY COUNCIL
BALBRIGGAN/SWORDS AREA COMMITTEE MEETING
(Services B – Strategic & General Matters)
THURSDAY 8TH NOVEMBER, 2018
ITEM NO. 43
AI045496
Question: Councillor B. Dennehy
"To ask the Chief Executive to carry out a study of the cost to provide
the refurbishment of the Old Mill Rush into a viewing platform and
tourist attraction, drawings of which are already completed and
available if required?"
Reply:
The monument in question is a Windmill. It is a national monument
(DU008-012) and any alterations to this building would require Ministerial
Consent. Without significant and detailed assessment it would not be
possible to estimate the cost of developing a viewing platform. The
Council would be amenable to meeting with local groups to discuss their
ideas in relation to this and other local features.
