(Due North). Proposed Buildings Area indicates building(s) that fall within Due North 1 - Site Analysis The site is located in the centre of Maynooth facing onto Millstreet and bounded by the Manor Mills Shopping Centre to the west of the site, St Marys Church and Parochial Buildings ar located north west of the site.The Millrace Apartments , Barton Hall, The Lyreen River are located south and south east. To the East a public open space area known as the Pound sits directly opposite the Lyreen River. To the north of the site a granted SHD Application under planning ref: 301230 is located consisting of private dwellings and student Accommodation buildings. 2 - Site Constaints A Desk-top study was carried out on the proposed site to determine the optimum layout efficiency for the site. The final design would be required to respect the setting of the protected structure St Marys Church, its surrounding boundaries and the natural light to any stained glass windows. Any proposed development would be required to create a possitive visual impact on the character of the historic town. The massing and finishes for the developent would be required to be successfully integrated into the town and streetscape and respect the architectural heritage for the area. The site has been identified as being located within a flood risk zone and a site specific Flood Risk assesment has been carried out for the site. A 10m riparian strip buffer zone is required to be respected the full length of the Lyreen River which runs the full length of the eastern boundary of site. A granted Adjacent development sits directly opposite our proposed development. Any Architectural Proposal will be required to respect any buildings and site connections, and allow for permeability through the development. A propsed bus stop Part 8 has been proposed to the front of the site any architectual response to the front of the site plaza area etc will need to take account of any proposed works to the front of the site. 3- Site Frontage Any proposed building that faces onto Millstreet will be required not to directly affect the protected structure of St Marys Church or its grounds and Curtilage. The architectural response will need to maintain the existing building line and height currently provided by St Marys Church. The impact the bell tower and facade currently provide facing onto Millstreet will need to will be maintained. Any proposed building to the front of the site will need to maintain the setting of the church and not diminish or overshadow any historic windows within the church grounds. The material response will need to reflect the exisitng and surrounding context and not undermine the streetscape elevation along Millstreet. 4 - Massing as per previous SHD Application 301775-18 The previous SHD application for the site under planning ref: 301775-18 consisted of 135No. apartments in 3No. separate blocks erected over a basement and providing a podium that overlooked the Lyreen River. Block A- 3 Storey Block B- 5 Storey Block C -4 Storey 5- Massing Development - Key Objectives Examining the previous application and the current site constraints a series of key objectives were put in place that the proposed massing on site would need to respect. 1- A separation distance is to be achieved between the protected Structure St Marys Church and any proposed building to the front of the site. This will remove any overshadowing onto the church stained glass windows and provide an active streetscape between any proposed building and the church. 2- Proposed buildings to the front of the site are required to respect the building line and height of St Marys Church. 3-Proposed buildings to the front of the site are required to provide materials that are sympathetic to its surrounding context. 4- Any proposed building(s) to the rear of St Marys Church should respect the buildings height, character and Artistic setting. 5-Any proposed building(s) to the rear of St Marys Church are to be designed as not diminish any natural light through the stained glass windows or overshadow the facade of the church. 6- Any proposed buildings should not have any negative inpact onto the adjacent land owners buildings through overshadowing. 7- A pedestrian/cycle path is to be created along the Lyreen River to provide connectivity through the site via the adjacent site recently granted under SHD application 301230. 6 - Massing Development - Proposed Block-A A proposed building Block-A has been located to the front of the site to create a street scape building that respects the building line and height of St Marys Church. The block has been positioned away from the church to provide a separation between the two buildings.The building has been stepped back from the southern boundary to create a a separation distance from the Millrace Apartments while also providing for a vehicular, pedestrian, and cycle entrance. Existing Site levels have allowed for a 4 storey block to sit adjacent to St Marys Church which will be below the roof level and respect the Church Setting and avoid any overshaowing to the building or diminishing of light to the stained glass windows. A 7 - Massing Development - Proposed Blocks B1 & B2 With the aim of reducing the large previous Block B on site to a less bulky and dominant building within the site, the block has been broken up into two smaller blocks ( B1 & B2), which will aid in creating a separation distance between St Marys Church and the adjacent lands to the north of the site. A B1 B2 A B1 B2 8 - Massing Development - Proposed Blocks B1 & B2 Block B1 has been rotated on the site to be parallell with the existing church boundary. A separation distance between B1 and St Marys Church is to be maintained.

1 - Site Analysis

The site is located in the centre of Maynooth facingonto Millstreet and bounded by the Manor MillsShopping Centre to the west of the site, St MarysChurch and Parochial Buildings ar located north west ofthe site.The Millrace Apartments , Barton Hall, TheLyreen River are located south and south east. To theEast a public open space area known as the Pound sitsdirectly opposite the Lyreen River. To the north of thesite a granted SHD Application under planning ref:301230 is located consisting of private dwellings andstudent Accommodation buildings.

2 - Site Constaints

A Desk-top study was carried out on the proposed site to determine the optimum layoutefficiency for the site. The final design would be required to respect the setting of theprotected structure St Marys Church, its surrounding boundaries and the natural light toany stained glass windows. Any proposed development would be required to create apossitive visual impact on the character of the historic town. The massing and finishes forthe developent would be required to be successfully integrated into the town andstreetscape and respect the architectural heritage for the area.The site has been identified as being located within a flood risk zone and a site specificFlood Risk assesment has been carried out for the site. A 10m riparian strip buffer zone isrequired to be respected the full length of the Lyreen River which runs the full length of theeastern boundary of site.A granted Adjacent development sits directly opposite our proposed development. AnyArchitectural Proposal will be required to respect any buildings and site connections, andallow for permeability through the development.A propsed bus stop Part 8 has been proposed to the front of the site any architectualresponse to the front of the site plaza area etc will need to take account of any proposedworks to the front of the site.

3- Site Frontage

Any proposed building that faces onto Millstreet will be required not to directlyaffect the protected structure of St Marys Church or its grounds andCurtilage. The architectural response will need to maintain the existingbuilding line and height currently provided by St Marys Church. The impactthe bell tower and facade currently provide facing onto Millstreet will need towill be maintained. Any proposed building to the front of the site will need tomaintain the setting of the church and not diminish or overshadow anyhistoric windows within the church grounds. The material response will needto reflect the exisitng and surrounding context and not undermine thestreetscape elevation along Millstreet.

4 - Massing as per previous SHD Application 301775-18

The previous SHD application for the site under planning ref: 301775-18consisted of 135No. apartments in 3No. separate blocks erected over abasement and providing a podium that overlooked the Lyreen River.Block A- 3 StoreyBlock B- 5 StoreyBlock C -4 Storey

5- Massing Development - Key Objectives

Examining the previous application and the current site constraints a series of key objectiveswere put in place that the proposed massing on site would need to respect.1- A separation distance is to be achieved between the protected Structure St Marys Church andany proposed building to the front of the site. This will remove any overshadowing onto thechurch stained glass windows and provide an active streetscape between any proposed buildingand the church.2- Proposed buildings to the front of the site are required to respect the building line and height ofSt Marys Church.3-Proposed buildings to the front of the site are required to provide materials that aresympathetic to its surrounding context.4- Any proposed building(s) to the rear of St Marys Church should respect the buildings height,character and Artistic setting.5-Any proposed building(s) to the rear of St Marys Church are to be designed as not diminishany natural light through the stained glass windows or overshadow the facade of the church.6- Any proposed buildings should not have any negative inpact onto the adjacent land ownersbuildings through overshadowing.7- A pedestrian/cycle path is to be created along the Lyreen River to provide connectivity throughthe site via the adjacent site recently granted under SHD application 301230.

6 - Massing Development - Proposed Block-A

A proposed building Block-A has been located to the front of the site tocreate a street scape building that respects the building line and height of StMarys Church. The block has been positioned away from the church toprovide a separation between the two buildings.The building has beenstepped back from the southern boundary to create a a separation distancefrom the Millrace Apartments while also providing for a vehicular, pedestrian,and cycle entrance. Existing Site levels have allowed for a 4 storey block tosit adjacent to St Marys Church which will be below the roof level and respectthe Church Setting and avoid any overshaowing to the building or diminishingof light to the stained glass windows.

7 - Massing Development - Proposed Blocks B1 & B2

With the aim of reducing the large previous Block B on site to a less bulkyand dominant building within the site, the block has been broken up into twosmaller blocks ( B1 & B2), which will aid in creating a separation distancebetween St Marys Church and the adjacent lands to the north of the site.

8 - Massing Development - Proposed Blocks B1 & B2

Block B1 has been rotated on the site to be parallell with the existing churchboundary. A separation distance between B1 and St Marys Church is to bemaintained. Block B2 has been rotated away from the northern boundary toprovide a greater separation distance between the adjacent grantedbuildings. Rotating the block has also removed the possiblity of any northfacing apartments that would be overlooking onto the site boundary.Therepositioning of both blocks has allowed for an area to be created to thecentre of the site for communal open space. Both buildings will now haveattractive views down onto the Lyreen River.

9 - Massing Development - Proposed Block C

The proposed block C has been postioned parallell to the Lyreen Riveroutside of the 10m riparian strip buffer zone. A pedestrian/cyclepathway is proposed along the river edge from the adjacent grantedCairns site out onto Millstreet. The position of the block allows forviews to the river and passive surveillance onto the communal space tothe centre of the site. The building height has been stepped downwhere if faces onto the Millrace Apartments.
