Practical Completion - Clos Y Ffatri

Practical Completion - Clos Y Ffatri

The Bluefield Land Ltd team were delighted today to handover our latest scheme to Trivallis. These units were delivered via a fabric-first methodology to meet AECB – Association for Environment Conscious Building standards of energy efficiency and performance using MVHR.

As far as we are aware, this is the first such scheme to be delivered in Wales using SHG funding. Credit goes to Spring Design for pioneering this technology through various processes to gain Llywodraeth Cymru / Welsh Government approval for use with HG.

Also noteworthy is that prior to the construction phase we employed the services of our Dauson Environmental Group Ltd colleagues in Cardiff Demolition Co. Limited, Neal Remediation Ltd and Atlantic Recycling Ltd to ensure as close to a closed loop of recycling within construction as possible. The strengths of our wider group, combined with our fabric-first approach makes us, we think, one of the most environmentally responsible developers in Wales.

It was a pleasure to deliver these units for our friends at Trivallis who also deserve credit for being early supporters of this approach to housebuilding in a real-world situation. We are now rolling out this technology across south Wales, saving future residents huge sums on their energy bills in these times of Fuel Poverty. We’re proud to be seen to be at the forefront of this approach.

Reptile translocation programme in Cimla is now complete.

Further to a lengthy period of ecological interventions, we are pleased that our reptile translocation programme in Cimla is now complete and we began the first phase of physical site works this week, once again overseen by our ecologist Hawkeswood Ecology.

This site strip will now pave the way for the next phase of ground investigation works and the completion of final demolition works including the remainder of the old Tudor Inn, before we make a site start ‘proper’ later this year.

Thanks again to the team at Tai Tarian.

Planning application submitted for Winding Wheel Lane, Penallta

Full planning application submitted for Winding Wheel Lane, Penallta.

Following a successful preapp and PAC process, we are delighted to have now submitted a full planning application for 33 affordable housing apartments and a standalone retail unit for our partners United Welsh at Winding Wheel Lane, Penallta.

Unsurprisingly in this historic location, the key issues were proven to be heritage, ecology and transport. As a result of the preapp processes we refined our proposals and are now pleasantly optimistic about receiving a swift planning resolution. The apartments proposed are to be a mixture of general needs and supported units, with the retail element to be retained by the current landowner.
