Development In Lanwern
Hi there, we are looking to potentially purchase a property on Milton Hill. We love the way the village is now. However checking around on the internet it shows that their is going to be massive development in the village which would according to what I have seen completely change the dynamics of the village from that of surrounded by fields to housing estates. Obviously this is a concern and may deter us from purchasing property in the village. Then when I read the information again it said that this was first phase and to start in 2011 and the second part at Llanwern steelworks to be the second phase. I know that second phase has started however I am interested to find out if the first phase has been abandoned, Can anyone give me their views please? you can either respond on here or email me.

Thank you.

Have they abandoned work on the gypsy site in Hartridge Farm Road? There has been no activity on the building site since before Christmas?

The work that Welsh Water were doing,was related to a Sewer improvement,nothing to do with the proposed Gypsy and Traveller site.
The Local Development Plan is still to be approved, but the site proposals still stand.

Is there anymore activity on the proposed travellers sites at Cothill and Hartridge Farm Road?
