Land at a former brick factory in Carmarthenshire is to make way for 71 houses. The former Dinas Yard site, Kidwelly, and an adjoining field will be developed into a mix of two and three-bedroom houses and some detached four-bed ones. Some of them will be classed as affordable.
The go-ahead was given by Carmarthenshire Council's planning department, subject to a number of conditions. Outline planning approval for the development was given more than four years ago.
Richard Banks, of Evans Banks Planning, on behalf of applicants Dinas Yard Developments Ltd, said: "The applicants are delighted to have finally secured reserved matters planning approval on this site after over a year of negotiations and deliberations with the county council." He said groundworks at the seven-acre site could get under way this autumn.
