A Royal Mail sorting office is set to be demolished to make way for a huge new block of flats. The Royal Mail's Cardiff West delivery office has stood on Cowbridge Road in Canton for decades but will be knocked down after a planning application was approved by the council.
The current two-storey office block will be replaced by a four to five-storey building containing 20 one and two bedroom flats on the first to fourth floors. The ground floor will comprise commercial units, with shops, cafes and restaurants among the potential new occupiers.
A planning application to demolish the sorting office, which was built in the 1960s, was approved by Cardiff council on Friday, July 8.
