The future of a building of "historic local importance" in Port Talbot town centre has been decided.
Despite being described as an "irreplaceable historical asset," plans to demolish Eagle House in Talbot Road, to make way for 18 affordable flats, have been approved at a Neath Port Talbot Council planning committee meeting.
Eagle House, based in Talbot Road, is located between the newly-renovated Grade II-listed Plaza Cinema and Grand Hotel, and dates back to the 1800s where it was described as a building of historical significance in its position adjacent to the transport hub and Port Talbot Parkway Railway Station.
