Controversy has erupted over a longstanding plan by Senator David Norris to re-erect the gates of Santry Court in North Great George's Street in the north inner city of Dublin. Mr Norris has denied that the plan, first proposed some 12 years is elitist. However An Taisce will only be submitting a "mild objection" to the scheme perhaps trying to avoid a confrontation with a fellow conservationist. But others take a much stronger line, based on the principle that a public street should not be railed off.
