Plans to expand sustainable urban centre Goodsheds in the Vale of Glamorgan have been given the green light. Vale of Glamorgan Council has approved plans to expand the popular independent hub in Barry by developing five train carriages for holiday accommodation and 10 containers for office spaces.
Plans for a block of flats and the relocation of an outdoor gym, which were in the original proposal, were omitted from the application. The application was originally meant to be decided at a meeting on April 27. However, the decision was deferred in order to allow the consultation process to be completed.
Goodsheds is a sustainable mixed-use development - situated within the growing Innovation Quarter at Barry Waterfront. Opened in 2020, it is a joint venture between Welsh Government and Vale of Glamorgan Council, the Goodsheds is a £9m+ mixed-use development comprising modern office spaces, independent food, drink and retail businesses, an outdoor gym, luxury rental accommodation and brand-new social housing provided by Newydd Housing Association.
