The delays were caused by a back and forth between South Dublin County Council and the then owner, the Italian state, over who should fix it.
It cost almost 800k and took six years to fix a wall outside the Italian ambassador's residence in Lucan.
The delays were caused by a back and forth between South Dublin County Council and the then owner, the Italian state, over who should fix it.
In the end, the council bought the property for €10 million from the Italian government.
The council said the wall, which comprises part of the Lucan House estate, is a protected structure.
Over €790k was spent on the reconstruction of the wall, according to the Sunday Times.
Over €47k was spent on a detailed design, while ESB was paid €35k.
A masterplan is being developed to turn the Lucan House Estate and Demense, now fully owned by the local authority, into a public amenity.
