The development designed by Dublin-based architects O'Connor Whelan also includes all associated site development and landscape works, including the incorporation of excess spoil material within the landscaped grounds of the hermitage clinic. Access is provided via the existing internal road network at the hermitage clinic.

Tenders are expected to be sought from contractors in Q4 2011. It is envisaged that construction work on the scheme will commence on site in Q4 2011.

The development will measure 1,104 sq.m and will be located on a 1.37 hectare site.
