Plan to demolish 'anti-social magnet' at Tuam school

Galway Bay fm  newsroom - A well-known school in Tuam could be set for changes.

The Board of Management of St. Jarlath's College is seeking planning permission to convert 4 classrooms on the first floor into 2 new classrooms.

The development would also include a new single storey construction studies building and the demolition of the existing mass concrete ball alley, which it's stated has become a magnet for anti-social behaviour and weekend drinking.

St. Jarlath's College Tuam is a protected structure and a decision is due from the county council next month.
