A 'wellbeing village' with hundreds of new homes, community facilities and green spaces could be built on the site of a former Cardiff secondary school, according to council plans. The proposed redevelopment of the former Michaelston College site in Ely will see 265 new homes built, as well as a community hub, public gardens and a café.
A planning application is set to be submitted for the new development having held three consultation events with the local community. If the proposals are ultimately granted planning permission, work to regenerate the site could begin as early as next spring.
Michaelston College closed in 2017, with the school replaced by Cardiff West Community High School alongside Glyn Derw High School. The site of the former college off Michaelston Road has remained vacant ever since but is set to be transformed completely if plans are approved.
