LIDL Ireland has applied for planning permission to build a new supermarket at the former Heiton Buckley premises on Edward Street.

The German multi-national intends to build a store comprising 2,767 sq m floor area and two storeys in height.

The construction of the supermarket will include a retail sales area with an ancillary off licence, bakery, public facilities, entrance pod, stairs and lift.

There will also be 131 park spaces, 6 disabled and 27 bicycle spaces.

Located behind the Centrepoint building on John Joe Sheehy Road/Edward Street, Heiton Buckley closed down back in 2006 and moved to their premises in Clash.

Back in August, the site – which was on the market at a €650,000 guide price from the selling agent REA North’s in Denny Street – realised well in excess of €1m when sold.
