Gowna Housing Association applied to convert the old schoolhouse in Loch Gowna into a new community facility.

Local resident Eleanor Davis says tonight's meeting is about awareness and information.

Monaghan County Council refused the application 50 new houses on two conditions.

Works will include construction of a fully-serviced, single-storey extension to the front of the new GP's home.

The five storey residential block would comprise of a mix of 1,2 and 3 bedroom units.

Labelbrook Limited is a privately-owned Dublin-based consortium that will run a Women and Children's Service Outpatients Department in Cavan.

The plans for the two storey building were lodged with the local authority in recent days.

The works were grant funded under the Outdoor Recreational Infrastructural Funding scheme.
