No change to the Plan.

The land referenced above was part of our holding when we lived at Penbrynllan Cil-y-Cwm between the years 1997 to 2009. During that time we had 3 ‘approaches’ regarding the field in question. First for the building of an ‘ecological’ house, a short lived notion that it would make a sensible and convenient location for a village hall and lastly that a substantial number of ‘affordable’ houses of high ecological specification was proposed by a local architect. This last notion was dropped due to local disquiet though our understanding was that the propsoal was not necessarily out of the question from a planning persptctive. A survey was done in the local area and to my recollection, a large number of local families expressed interest, particualarly those with children. The notion was that we would sell the land at lower than commercial rates to keep costs relatively low.
It seemed logical therefore to retain the field when we sold the residual house and land.
Thanks for your consideration of this proposal to make the specified field part of the builable area within Cil-y-Cwm. What we would envisage is a small number of compact and affordable dwellings with the rest of the land being used for community purposes, perhaps an orchard or even allotments and/or even a multi-purpose village hall type building, which would be therefore adjacent to the playing field.
In view of the above we believe that this proposal is fitting and appropriate to the area.
