Flintshire County Council has approved 130 new homes at Ffordd Dewi in Flint, which Wales and West Housing will manage once complete, while a further 315 home scheme off Holywell Road in Ewloe is working through planning after councillors raised density concerns. The council has adopted Place Making Plans for Queensferry, Connah's Quay, Buckley, Holywell, and Shotton, with plans for Mold and Flint at an advanced stage. Away from these schemes, established towns across the county keep a steady flow of extensions and loft conversions.
