The structure is built largely out of timber with some steel elements. Image: Anthea Lacchia The structure is built largely out of timber with some steel elements. Image: Anthea Lacchia A LARGE FILM set resembling an elaborate house, currently under construction on a headland overlooking one of Wicklow’s most popular beaches, has been investigated for not having planning permission.

Magheramore has been a popular filming location for several years, appearing in a range of TV shows including Vikings, Camelot, Redwater and Amy Huberman’s Finding Joy.It’s also a highly regarded surfing location and is hugely popular with families. In recent years, it’s been the scene of the annual “Dip in the Nip” charity drive which has raised hundreds of thousands of euro for cancer research.

Press Up operates an extensive range of bars, restaurants and hotels across Ireland including the Captain Americas, Wowburger and Elephant & Castle restaurant chains, The Workman’s Club and Clarence Hotel in Dublin’s Temple Bar, and the Dean hotels in Dublin, Cork and Galway.

The legislation outlines that local authorities issue warning letters for unauthorised development unless the development in question is of a “trivial or minor nature”. “The film company have been in contact with Wicklow Co. Co. to address any concerns raised. WCC [Wicklow County Council] have confirmed to them that they are fully satisfied the enforcement matter is now closed.”The structure was also reported to the National Parks and Wildlife Service and an officer from that body visited the site. It concluded that the structure is covered by the Planning and Development Act and is therefore a matter for the local authority, Wicklow County Council.

Film company put a new roof back on historic St Georges Ardfry House, in Kilclogan Co Galway, then filmed it burning down in John Hustons 1973 Macintosh Man - Paul Newman & James Mason were stars. Building still has listed status, but being allowed to crumble and be abused by CC?

Probably embarrassed that a film set can build a house quicker than this government can!

Here’s a village & shop/pub built for The Banshees of Inisheerin at Purteen Harbour, Achill Island. Mayo County Council was aware it was a film set 😂
