Construction Trends in Gwynedd

Near Pwllheli, housing association ClwydAlyn has broken ground on the Penrhos Polish Village redevelopment, demolishing poor-condition housing and rebuilding it into 107 new affordable homes as part of the council's Housing Action Plan. The county's Local Development Plan, which has guided development since 2011, set a housing target of more than 7,000 homes and is now nearing the end of its period, with a successor plan expected. Away from these schemes, Bangor, Caernarfon, and Porthmadog keep a steady flow of extensions and loft conversions on established housing.
