Greenfield Residential Development Opportunity
Craig-y-Parcau extends to approximately 16.31 acres (6.6 hectares) of predominantly greenfield land with stretches of hedgerows and mature trees which assist to screen the site along the boundary. Running north to south through the centre of the site is a narrow watercourse which serves to split the site to provide a ‘western’ and ‘eastern’ parcel. The western parcel is predominantly grazing land. The eastern part of the site consists of a large area of grazing land, as well as the former Craig-y-Parcau boys home and the former Ty Afon boys home, which together have a combined floorspace of approximately 2,500 sq m (26,910 sq ft). Both buildings are vacant and in a poor and derelict condition. In addition, to the south of the site is land which previously comprised Llanerch residential home, however this building was demolished following extensive fire damage. The site is bounded by the A48 to the north, the River Ogmore to the east (and a public footpath running adjacent to it), New Inn Road to the south and to the west by mature trees and further grazing land.
