Ards and Down Area Plan 2015
Ards Borough: Donaghadee Industry

The North Down and Ards Area Plan 1984 – 1995 zoned two sites on either side of a factory on the High Bangor Road for industrial use. A significant portion of these have recently been developed for other purposes.

A major new Waste Water Treatment Works has been constructed on part of the land to the west of the former factory to serve Bangor, Donaghadee and Millisle. The plant is designed to meet the effluent discharge Standards into the Irish Sea set in the European Directive on Urban Waste Water Treatment.

Housing was granted on appeal on land to the east of the former factory.

The factory has been demolished but the site remains suitable for industrial use.
