Clarehall Shopping Centre is a mid-size shopping centre located in the northern part of Coolock, north Dublin, adjacent to Ayrfield and near the housing estate of Clare Hall. The centre is owned by Tesco Ireland and anchored by one of Ireland’s first Tesco-branded stores.[1]

History

The shopping centre is built near the site of a former house, Claregrove Hall, and the Clare Manor Hotel which replaced it, these origins providing the name of both a nearby housing estate developed in the late 20th century, and the centre. The icehouse of the original house remains.

In March 2000, Tesco began planning to build a "£20 million shopping centre" in Dublin 17. Tesco was believed to have paid around £12 million for the 10-acre site.[2] By October, they had applied for planning permission to develop the shopping centre.[3]

Over one year later, Tesco was still applying for planning permission as it was rejected by Dublin City Corporation as Tesco's request was for a shopping centre to replace existing planning permission for a standalone store.

In May 2002, it was announced that Tesco had received approval to build a €70 million shopping centre in the Clare Hall area of Dublin following a campaign lasting four years.[4]

The shopping centre officially opened on 19 July 2004 with a grand opening ribbon cut by Kerry Katona.[5]

Clare Hall won the "Commercial Development in the Republic" Irish Property award in 2004.[6]
