PLANS have been lodged with Cork County Council seeking approval for a major expansion at one of Glengarriff’s best-known local landmarks.
The heritage listed Quill’s woollen market building is a popular destination for tourists and locals alike and now owners Quills Retail are seeking permission for a major expansion of the premises.
The application seeks permission for two new single-storey extensions to the building – one to the side and one to the rear, a first floor restaurant and balcony dining with pedestrian bridge.
It also seeks permission for food and craft stalls and a seating area. There could also be a bicycle storage and repair building with a bike rental kiosk, and a decision is due on June 24th.
