Bridgend Council have approved an extra £265,000 for the development of Cosy Corner in Porthcawl after asbestos was discovered at the site.
The £2.4m development will include five small retail units, public toilets and changing facilities, along with an outdoor children’s play area and public seating area with canopy. However, following surveys on the land, which was acquired by the local authority in 2020, asbestos was found at the site.
