92.2 M2 Ashbourne - Ratoath - Dynamic Cluster
Ashbourne - Introduction
Ashbourne is located on the M2/N2, 23 km from Dublin City
Centre and 19 km from Dublin Airport.
The Gaelicised form of Ashbourne is Cill Dhéagláin meaning
Church of Saint Declan. The earliest settlement in the site
of modern day Ashbourne was known as “Cill Dheachlain”
or Killegland, which gives its name to the present townland.
In 1790 the Dublin Engineer Richard Bourne was
commissioned to realign the mail coach road, acquired land
and proceeded to develop it and subsequently renamed the
settlement Ashbourne by adding the prefix “ash” to his
surname.
Ashbourne’s urban form has undergone a rapid transformation
in recent years, from a small village to become part of the
commuter belt of Dublin. Ashbourne is now Meath’s sec-
ond largest town after Navan. This growth is a result of the
rapid construction of several new housing and commercial
developments. A series of shopping streets have been
developed as part of a scheme focused on building a new
retail centre for the town.
The new high street contains a number of varied retail units
along with a new library and council offices along with a large
hotel, apartments and supermarket and community facilities.
Public Transport
Ashbourne is serviced by the recently constructed M2 motorway and is
12km from the M50 (Dublin ring road). The development of the motorway
plays an integral part in the future vision for economic development within
South East Meath. A frequent bus service operates from Ashbourne to
Dublin city centre.
Economic Development Strategy
Ashbourne is currently designated as a “moderate growth town” within the Meath
County Development Plan. It is considered that the continual sequential growth of the
town will sustain existing commercial enterprise and encourage inward investment,
providing for future growth in employment and enterprise.
Ashbourne Town Centre has a B1 zoning in the current Meath County Development
Plan as follows:
To protect and enhance the special physical and social character of existing town and
village centres and to provide for new and improved town centre facilities and uses.
There are new emerging opportunities that can facilitate economic development with-
in Ashbourne; including the presence of a skilled labour pool, new infrastructure and
upgrades to existing infrastructure. The Planning Authority is also committed to and
will continue to work closely with bodies and organisations that can deliver economic
expansion to South East Meath.

development in the suburbs leading to large population
growth, providing new opportunities for commercial/indus-
trial growth within and around the town. This development
area, by virtue of its proximity to the Metropolitan Area of
the City, its good road access to same and its attractive rural
environs has resulted in the town becoming under extreme

182.3 Dunboyne - Clonee - Dunshaughlin
Metropolitan Corridor
Introduction
Dunboyne/Clonee and Dunshaughlin Corridor is strategi-
cally located at the edge of the Metropolitan Area of Dublin;
13km north-west of Dublin City Centre and 16km from Dub-
lin Airport to the east.
The area benefits greatly from the recent completion of the
M3 motorway and interchange at Pace, which provides easy
access to Dublin, Dublin Airport as well as the rest of the
country and the major ports. The availability of rail transport
with the completion of the Dublin Dunboyne/Pace rail link
greatly enhances the area for future economic development.
Dunboyne/Clonee/Pace is designated as part of a ‘Primary
Dynamic Cluster’ in the Regional Planning Guidelines for
the Greater Dublin Area. The corridor has also been identi-
fied as a Large Growth Town II, resulting from the comple-
tion of key entified above.

Economic Development Strategy
The lands available within Dunboyne/Clonee/Dunshaughlin Corridor have several zon-
ings within the current Meath County Development Plan including: E1, E2 and WL
(refer to Appendix A) for a summary of the zoning objectives.
Specific Objectives
The lands at Pace also have a Specific Objective (F): to facilitate the phased develop-
ment of a major town centre as designated in the Retail Strategy for the Greater Dublin
Area 2008-2016 in accordance with the provisions of a future framework plan.
These zoned lands will provide significant opportunities for employment creation within
the Corridor into the future. The presence of access to the motorway network provides
the transportation infrastructure necessary for lower density industrial, distribution and
warehouse related activities. The railway stations provide opportunities for higher den-
sity office based employment. These will build on the strong employment base already
existing in the area (ie. Dunboyne Industrial Estate, Bracetown Business Park and the
Hub Business Park).

30Dunshaughlin
Introduction
Dunshaughlin is located on the N3 National Primary Route
25km north-west of Dublin City Centre and 27km from Dublin
Airport to the east. It developed along the N3 and has no
significant natural features such as a major river or a coast
line that has impacted its urban form. This gives Dunshaughlin
a very distinctive linear urban form. The town comprises its
main street and is the focus of commercial, retail and com-
munity facilities with a whole range of land uses provided.
There is also a business/light industrial centre, community/
educational facilities, three schools and a Health Centre.
Historical
The character of the town of Dunshaughlin has been formed
by two main historical factors; its development around the
old church of Saint Seachnall or Saint Secundinus, and
Public Transport its position on the road from Dublin to Navan. The town is
named after Saint Secundinus or Saint Seachnall, who was

enhances the area for future economic development.
A frequent bus service operates from Dunshaughlin to Dublin city centre.
Like many Irish villages, the form of Dunshaughlin is long
and narrow, sometimes referred to as a street village or Sraid
Bhaile. The layout of the town is distinctive as the street
curves around to accommodate the site of Saint Seachnall
or Saint Secundinus’ Church at the north of the Main Street.
Today, Dunshaughlin is a busy, lively town with many shops,
schools and amenities including: Killeen Castle Golf Course
the venue for the Solheim Cup 2011.
Economic Development Strategy
Dunshaughlin is identified as a moderate growth town in the current 2007-2013 Meath
County Development Plan and forms part of the Ashbourne-Dunshaughlin-Ratoath
Dynamic Cluster. There are new emerging opportunities that can facilitate economic
development within Dunshaughlin; including the presence of a skilled labour pool, new
infrastructure and upgrades to existing infrastructure. The Planning Authority is also
committed to and will continue to work closely with bodies and organisations that can
deliver economic expansion to South East Meath.
The lands available within Dunshaughlin have several zonings within the current Meath
County Development Plan including E1 and E2 (refer to Appendix A)
These zoned lands will provide significant opportunities for employment creation within
the Dunshaughlin into the future. The presence of access to the motorway network pro-
vides the transportation infrastructure necessary for lower density industrial, distribution
and warehouse related activities.

322.4 M4 Carton Demesne - Maynooth
Dynamic Cluster
Introduction
Maynooth is located; 23km west of Dublin City Centre and 26km from Dublin Airport.
The town is a designated growth centre in the Regional Planning Guidelines and forms part of the ‘M4 dynamic cluster’ within the area.
It is a major University town with a growing student and residential population, with established rail and motorway links to Dublin, Dublin
Port, Dublin Airport and the rest of the country. The area is well placed to take advantage of its proximity to the National roads network,
Dublin Airport and well as national rail network. Maynooth has been clearly identified in the RPGs as the anchor settlement within the
overall ‘M4 dynamic cluster’. This is primarily due to Maynooth’s educational institutions as well as its long-established and prominent
settlement history.
Historical
The town of Maynooth takes its name from Nuadha Neacht,
a pre-Christian King of Ireland, or perhaps from a later Mogh
Nuadhat, a ruler of the second century after Christ. In early
Christian times there were at least three churches within
three miles of the present town though the actual origins of
Maynooth could be said to date from the late 12th century
when the Fitzgeralds were granted the Manor of Maynooth.
To establish themselves, the newcomers would at first have
built a castle of the motte-and-bailey type, and this would
have been replaced with a more permanent structure as time
Public Transport allowed. The ruins, now a national monument, are of the
castle commenced in the 13th century and much enlarged
Maynooth is serviced by the Dublin/Maynooth rail line providing a frequent in later centuries. The great tower still stands to its original
service into Dublin. The development of this rail line plays an integral part height. In 1521 the Fitzgeralds founded a college but it did

extremity of which is the avenue leading to Carton, the mag-
nificent seat of the present Duke of Leinster, and at the other
the Royal College of St. Patrick”.
In 1967 St. Patrick’s College opened its gates to lay students
bringing further change. Today the population of Maynooth is
around 10,700 and is a bustling, vibrant town with both stu-
dents and residents, fantastic shops, schools and amenities
including: NUI Maynooth.
Indicative Masterplan -
SMART Park, Carton Demesne
The lands available within Carton Demesne have a Zoning Objective E4 (Science and
Technology – ‘to provide for high technology/biotechnology industries in a high qual-
ity campus style environment) within the current Maynooth Environs Local Area Plan
2009-2015.
A non-statutory Masterplan for the SMART Park within the Carton Demesne lands was
prepared in 2008. This masterplan has been prepared with the objective to provide for
hi-tech/bio-tech industries in that location. The vision of the Masterplan is to provide a
high-quality campus to the north-west of Carton Demesne with a strong emphasis on
business, innovation and technology based research, where NUI Maynooth is an impor-
tant development partner. The Masterplan seeks ‘to create a village atmosphere which
will include for a mixture of employment, enterprise, education and some residential
accommodation and supporting services to include a crèche, café, shop and common
room.’
The proximity of Carton Demesne which consists of a high quality integrated tourist
complex, where conferencing, banqueting, recreational activities are available, offers
the potential for further synergies.

The area has good access to the regional ESB net-

erse the LAP area lands including a 220 kv overhead line. The
development of the LAP area lands will require the provision of
additional substations and appropriate network infrastruc-
ture. Other utility services such as telecommunications and
gas will require action on the part of the utility providers. In
particular, the provision of a high capacity broadband network
is a pre-requisite for the delivery of a high quality Science and Tech-
nology based campus.

Site size: 93.63 ha
Zoning: Zoned predominantly for Emploment/Technology (E1)

Access: via the new Maynooth Outer Orbital Motorway
Introduction to the development
Moygaddy (Maigh Gadaí) is an area directly north of the busy University
Town of Maynooth and its Town Centre. While Moygaddy is within the
County Meath, Maynooth proper is within County Kildare. The two are
separated by the Ryewater. Moygaddy is a crucial development zone
for the vibrant town centre of Maynooth and its expanding technological
and educational campuses. The realisation of varied development in this
area will result in a prominent role for Moygaddy and Maynooth in the
context of the Greater Dublin Area, both as a strategic employment zone
and area for residential development and provision of suitable amenity.
Economic Development
Strategy
Development will follow the guidance of the Moygaddy,
Maynooth Masterplan and will provide a mix of building
types and uses with a full range of utilities. It is envisaged
in the Meath County Development Plan 2013-2019 that
the lands at Moygaddy are to be utilised for high end
employment, residential, tourism and supporting com-
mercial uses.
The objective set out by the Development Plan is to fos-
ter a ‘dynamic partnership’ between multi-national com-
panies, indigenous small and medium sized enterprises
(SMEs) and third level institutions which may include
Maynooth University leading to the creation of an area
of excellence with a high degree of synergy as a premier
location for high tech/bio tech industries.
This will be augmented by the provision of the new May-
nooth Outer Orbital Road delivering new infrastructure
and providing a solid base for high end science and tech-
nology campus.

11 35Appendix A - Land Use Zoning Objectives
Meath County Council, is in the process of reviewing its Development Plan and Local Area Plans (which provide further guidance for towns and villages) will follow.
To this end, the policies which relate to sites can change and Meath County Council, to encourage economic activity and employment generation within key areas
(including South East Meath) facilitate and welcome consultation with potential investors or developers to pragmatically and positively interpret the Plan such that its
key underlying objectives are met, i.e. growth of the Metropolitan area (which includes South East Meath), create and maximise opportunities for job creation, etc.
To determine if your proposal accords with the most up to date and relevant Development Plan policies we would recommend and can arrange consultation with the
planning authority.
South East Meath has a range of suitable ready to go developed site and zoned greenfield lands for economic development purposes. The lands are zoned within
the Draft Variation No. 3 of the Meath County Development Plan 2013-2019 and Maynooth Environs Draft Local Area Plan 2009-2015 and include the following Land
