On the fringes of Swansea city centre, a hop away from the trendy Uplands area of Swansea, is a thriving little community packed with shops, restaurants, cafes and all manner of other businesses.
Sketty has been quietly getting on with the business of serving its local populace everything from paint to pastries for many years, helped by a large car park in its centre. There is also plenty of on-street car parking, but the fact these spaces are more than often full, especially at busy times, shows just how popular this community is with locals.
But then the car park shut for development, and local businesses say they have been badly impacted. Customers don't know where to park, and tempers are getting frayed over the few remaining space.
