7.8.6 Rural House Design Guidance

​​​​​​7.8.6 Rural House Design Guidance

A Rural Design Guide was produced in 2008 for County Kilkenny.  The Design Guide acts as an instrument to develop best practice in the design and siting of one-off rural housing.  Those intending to build houses in the countryside are advised to consult the Rural Design Guide for advice on site choice, local design and landscaping at an early stage in their preparations. 

Further guidance is given in Section 13.20 Rural Housing and Section 12.11.3 Access to National Roads.
