This week, Cork County Council published planning documents on its new Social Housing Development at Liscahane for 26 homes. Thect site is located to the rear of an existing residential estate (Old Coach Avenue and Old Court Drive), off the Liscahane Road.
This is to be welcomed as homes are in very short supply in Millstreet, as is the case all over the country presently.
Below is the site layout, but full documents for the development are available on the Cork County Council website HERE.

Side notes:
- Does anyone know where the name Páirc Chatháin comes from? Catháin is the Irish for Kane or Keane, but I’m struggling to come up with local connection? The fields there in the past known as Hennessy’s fields.
-
The planning documents refer to it as being on Hegarty Street, and also “off Drishane Road”, neither which is correct. This is a legacy of mislabelling on Google Maps, and also a sign of the lack of local involvement in the planning process 😐
