Creeping Development, St Dial's Road, Old Cwmbran 1 May 2024

The field at the back, once home to horses, sheep and geese, now being levelled to receive more houses, the latest phase of Holly Court, the development originally to have been on the former Greenmeadow Police Training College, but now crept down to Old Cwmbran.

 

The mantra is "we need houses", but much of the new build activity is geared towards pulling in commuters from Bristol and Cardiff. This pushes up prices and does little to help local first time buyers. It also increased pollution and congestion on the M4.
