A mum has accused a local authority of allowing HGVs to use her driveway to access a development that is blighting the lives of residents. Beth Edwards said she did not want her three-year-old son Bran to have to grow up amid a building site.
Ms Edwards bought a house at Coed Parc in Bridgend town centre in 2020 with her husband, next to the old Coed Parc library which is a listed building. Everything ran smoothly, until they realised that the future of the development site where their house was on, was not quite as straightforward as it first seemed.
The old Coed Parc Library site in Park Street, Bridgend, which includes a Grade II listed main house, was sold by Bridgend County Borough Council to Wales and West Housing Association (WWHA) in 2012. Following a drawn out planning dispute, the site was sold by WWHA in 2019.
