What commercial and industrial sites we want near Abertillery
Older business land around Abertillery, especially units now surrounded by housing, is the kind of commercial site we would like to discuss. Abertillery lies about 7 miles north-west of Cwmbran in Gwent. We also cover Pontypool, Newbridge, Ebbw Vale and the villages between them.
- Industrial units and yards within residential areas
- Builders' yards, depots and storage land
- Garage, workshop and showroom sites
- Land where employment use has been marketed without success
Newport's adopted Local Development Plan designates a green belt between Newport and Cardiff, and Future Wales anticipates a wider green belt for south-east Wales once a regional plan sets its boundary. Newport and Cwmbran see the strongest demand, while Bannau Brycheiniog National Park and the Wye Valley National Landscape cover northern and eastern parts of the area.
What usually makes or breaks it
Employment land protection
Councils often protect business land; evidence of marketing or lack of demand can matter.
Leases
Tenancies and their protection affect when the site can be redeveloped.
Neighbouring businesses
Homes next to noisy uses may need mitigation or may not be acceptable.
Flood risk in Wales is assessed under Technical Advice Note 15 and the Flood Map for Planning, which can be decisive for land near rivers and the coast.
Though we are based in Birmingham (roughly 77 miles away), distance is no barrier: we look at land across England and Wales.
