Lower Ebbw and Sirhowy Valleys (Risca to Newbridge Corridor)

Please Note:

Where more than one submission has been made for the same site only one of the sites has been identified as being suitable for further consideration, to avoid duplication. This applies to the following sites:

  • RNC012 Penyfan Farm (site 2), Risca (Duplicate site - see RNC011)

Where candidate sites already have planning permission, they are included as committed housing sites as the principle of development has already been established. They will therefore not be considered further as potential allocations in the plan in order to avoid double counting. This applies to the following sites:

  • RNC022 Land at Ty Darren, Risca
