Site Location: Land Adjacent to Parc y Bryn/Heol y Delyn, Carmarthen.

As a ward member I know this area well from my numerous visits to the Springfield Road, Heol y Delyn area and with regular discussions with local residents. This site is in an area that provides a habitat for a diverse range of wildlife and the last time I visited the area on Sunday 3rd February 2019, someone who has lived in Heol y Delyn for over thirty years was very keen to tell me the pleasure he gets from living in an area so rich in wildlife.

He told me how the population of red kites has increased significantly over the years: the joy he gets in listening to the woodpeckers and watching the different birds of prey; the foxes with their young crossing the fields; talking to fellow residents about the evidence of badger sets and adder nests in the area.
