The floor area is listed as 427 square metres.

According to the documents lodged with KCC, the date received is listed as August 5, while the submission-by and due dates are listed as September 8 and September 29.

Founded in 2014, Linnaeus has over 180 branches across the UK and Ireland, with a total of over 1,032 vets and 1,490 nursing staff.

It offers specialist referral services, as well as primary care, across its practices.

In addition to its Maynooth branch, Linnaeus also has branches in Firhouse, Blackrock, Primrose Hill and Lucan, all in County Dublin.
