Lawrenny

Following on from discussions with the National Park Planning Authority, Pembrokeshire Council Housing Officers and the local Housing Association; the revised scheme now includes 7 affordable housing units, 6 of which are proposed under an adjacent/ off-site provision (in the adjoining paddock area). The affordable housing proposed consists of four, one-bedroom units and three, two-bedroom units. Six units are proposed to be developed by the Local Housing Association with one unit built by the estate (that will then be offered at current affordable housing rental levels).

The site also includes 7 rural offices to encourage sustainable place making - creating a live-work community - along with a biomass storage and infrastructure building (located to the north-west of the site).

The proposed biomass system provides a unique sustainable heating facility for the proposed dwellings. The Biomass building is sited for practicality reasons whilst also balancing visual impact and servicing requirements. It is currently envisaged that the estate will seek to actively manage the forested lands under ownership, to provide timber to supply the system in the medium to long term.

As a unique village located within the National Park, design parameters are seen to be key to ensuring the new development can be successfully integrated with the village. The design ensures that the highways do not dominate the site and a village pedestrian environment (with a focal square) can allow the new dwellings to successfully engage with the existing community. Further upgrades are also proposed, for example, upgrading foul and drainage infrastructure, bringing fibre optic broadband to the village and replacing existing transformers.

In accordance with the above statute, the following information forms part of the formal site notices to be erected on site. NB For the full site notices, please see the site notices available for download via the below dropbox folder links.
