Information sought on Bishop's Palace plan

The Irish Times

Kilkenny Borough Council has requested detailed further information from the Church of Ireland on a controversial plan to turn the Bishop's Palace in Kilkenny into offices for the Heritage Council. The plan, for which permission is being sought, has been heavily criticised by An Taisce on the grounds that it would compromise the architectural character of the palace itself and the unique setting of St Canice's Cathedral.
