Anwyl to start Wrexham homes development this summer

Anwyl Partnerships has been awarded a contract to deliver 23 affordable homes in Gwersyllt near Wrexham - with work set to start this summer.

The firm secured the contract with Wales & West Housing for the land at Woodlands Farm.

Planning approval was given at appeal last year and the build will start in June.

Tom Anwyl, managing director of Ewloe based Anwyl Partnerships, said “There is a clear lack ofquality, affordable housing for people in this area and the positive planning appeal has paved the way to help meet this need. These homes will be built to a high standard and delivered using local labour.

“We’re incredibly pleased to once again be chosen by Wales & West Housing to deliver this important scheme and have begun early preparation works ahead of starting on site in June.”

The development sits in an area of strong ecological interest, specifically in relation to newts. Therefore, a new habitat area will also be built to cater to these natural inhabitants as part of the works.

Tom added: “This is a sensitive green belt area which is rich in plant and animal life. We have a clear plan in place to protect and enhance local wildlife and ensure the build causesn as little disruption as possible.”

Gary Cook, Wales & West Housing regional development manager for North Wales, said: “We are committed to building 2,500 new homes in Wales over the next five years to help tackle the national shortfall of affordable housing.

"This new development in Gwersyllt will provide high quality, warm, energy efficient homes which are much-needed in the area.”
