Plans for an Aldi and Starbucks Coffee shop could be submitted for land at Burrows Yard in Aberavon later this year, after an exchange of contracts between Neath Port Talbot Council took place in December of 2022.
The Burrows Yard site is located in a popular residential area close to Port Talbot Town Centre and the Green Park re-development, but has been left empty for a number of years. The land has formerly been home to a council yard and a petrol station, but could soon be home to two popular businesses.
Labour councillor Stephanie Grimshaw announced the plans through her social media pages this week, and said that after years of hard work, this could be a very positive thing for residents living near the area.
