Kildare homeowner wants to build private tennis court

A planning application has been submitted to Kildare County Council for a private tennis court beside an existing house. 

The proposed facility is planned for an area beside a property in the Mariavilla region of Maynooth. 

Access for vehicles and pedestrians and parking are also planned. 

The designs include a new 2.4m high chain-link perimeter fence.

An additional 1m high netting on top of the fence is also in the plans.
