Work to build affordable homes on site of former school set to get underway
Work to build 43 affordable homes on the site of a former Port Talbot school is expected to begin in the coming weeks. The development, led by social landlord Linc Cymru, will be based on the site of the former Lower Dyffryn School in Port Talbot with funding from the Welsh Government.
The school site, which is based in a densely-populated residential area, was fully vacated in 2018 and has been left derelict since it closed. Plans will now see the construction of 43 affordable properties along with an internal road network, landscaping, and additional car parking.
Once completed the properties will be made up of a mixture of two-storey houses and three-storey apartment blocks made up of of 18 one-bed flats, six two-bed flats, eight two-bed houses, and 11 three-bed homes.
