A regeneration project in Swansea has secured extra grant funding. The Hafod Morfa Copperworks, a part of the £1bn worth of projects aimed at transforming Swansea, will receive a further £750,000.
The project, which will regenerate under used areas in the Lower Swansea Valley, sees the restoration of buildings at the former industrial site by the River Tawe near Swansea.com Stadium. A new Penderyn Whisky distillery and visitor attraction is also being built in the site's disused powerhouse and is due to open in March 2023.
The latest £750,000 grant funding is made up of £250,000 from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and £500,000 from the Welsh Government's regional capital stimulus funding programme.
