Ali Hewson and other Killiney residents have won their planning battle to halt a luxury residential scheme near their homes in south Dublin.

This follows Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown County Council refusing planning permission to Covelo Developments Ltd to construct four “very large” two-storey four-bedroom flat-roofed houses in the grounds of Montebello House on Killiney Hill Road.
