Judge orders demolition

FORMER architect David Grant was yesterday ordered to demolish an unauthorised extension to his Dublin 4 home.

Mr Grant did not appear in Dublin District Court yesterday and was not represented. The court heard he built a two-storey extension at the rear of his Haddington Road home without permission.

An application to have it declared exempted development was rejected. He was served with an enforcement notice requiring its removal but as of last Tuesday, it was still in place.

Judge Anthony J Halpin ordered that the structure be removed within a month and fined Mr Grant €1,500.
