BREAKING: Green light for first crematorium in Kildare

Planning permission has been granted by Kildare County Council for a crematorium in the Allenwood area. 

Wellbrook Funeral Services had sought approval to erect the facility at Derrymullen.

The plans for the crematorium include an administration office, a gas storage compound and a wastewater treatment system.

Also in the designs is an access road from the existing Wellbrook Embalming Centre and Chapel of Rest.

Extensive landscaping including wildflowers is also part of the development.
