Just for the record both my grandfathers worked in Llay Main,not in the offices, not white collar workers, down the pit and I have lived in Llay for 30 years.Chris – no problem
Just for the record the leaflet that they have posted through the doors of residents living on Gresford Road fail to say how many houses their development is for. So for the record its
360 houses = approx 1000 people, if you include 2 people on average per house, 2 cars per household potentially = 700 extra cars along the Gresford Road daily.
So small development it is not.
And we note they have only leafleted houses along Gresford Road. It will not only be these people who will be affected, when everybody will be fighting for a doctors appointment or a place in the school in Llay.Its official. Just had leaflet through our door. Public meeting on 6th november 4.00pm – 7.00pm at llay british legion.
Lets hope there is a good turnout to show our opposition.
We already have a good following, but the more the better.Keep an eye on this forum for updates.
Also Zinger I think its apparently going to be Flats, affordable homes and Housing Association homes. So a big mix of different types of housing which will include some social housing so hard to know who would be buying/renting there.
Hi all
Yes there is going to be a Public Meeting on 6th November I think between 4.00pm – 7.00pm. There will be leaflets being put through doors shortly I believe. Think its at the Miners Institute. I will keep it posted as soon as I know more.Yes I wonder why that is !! Bigger fields to fill instead. It seems now Gresford Road Fields are the target, but on private land instead.
The re-invented caravan park across the road from the new proposed development are not going to be happy as their lodges were sold as with “beautiful open countryside views” I hope they will also be joining in with expressing their views.Hello all
Yes its definately not council owned land. It is owned by the Farm along Gresford Road and we have always thought it green belt agricultural land and so everybody is in total shock that such a development might get planning permission.
In Wrexham there is most definitely a glut of houses especially in Brymbo and Gwersyllt areas so cannot see why 360 more houses are needed.Llay is already a big town and this development in itself is almost like a new town but with no infrastructure, such as doctors surgery or school.
Gresford Road has always been a pleasant area for all the villagers of LLay with a semi rural feel for a nice walk with the dog or bike ride with the kids, but the aspect will certainly change to a concrete jungle as suggested by Zinger and surely this is not a good thing for the community. The road is already a busy road, so with another 360 houses which would equate to at least 700 extra cars using the road (2 cars per household which is the norm these days) it just is going to be a nightmare especially at peak times.So lets hope it never gets passed for all concerned.
Hello zinger
Exactly our point. If you take in the fact that the doctors and schools are already full to capacity another 1000 people in an area will have a Hugh detrimental impact on the people already living in LLay. It is beyond belief that the council are even considering it. But presume it’s all about money as things always are.
Thanks for the comment.
