Small sites we are looking for in Abercarn
Small sites in and around Abercarn are central to what we look for, from corner plots to the odd field on the edge of a nearby village. Abercarn lies about 5 miles west of Cwmbran in Gwent. We also cover Newbridge, Risca, Blackwood and the villages between them.
- Corner plots and side gardens with road frontage
- Garage blocks and small yards
- Sites where an earlier application can be improved
- Land within or touching a settlement boundary
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.
