Plans for 28 new small business units at Ty Du, Nelson
Developer Cyncoed Property (Cardiff) Ltd is seeking planning permission for 28 small business units to the site's south.
It is hoped the project, if approved, will provide 'modern, light industrial units' for 'small-sized start-up [or] trade-counter uses', according to planning agents at Knight Frank.
The Ty Du site has been earmarked for significant development in the council's Local Development Plan, and if approved the new units would follow on from the completion of other business units in 2021.
Separate proposals for 169 new homes are also in the pipeline for the wider Ty Du area, and received the council's support in late 2024 – but also requires Welsh Government approval because the project is classed as a 'major' development.
The new proposals for the 28 small business units would 'provide a flexible mix of employment uses so that the site can react dynamically to market demand', the agents said.
The new units could also provide more than 50 jobs, according to the application form for the proposal.
The application is currently out for consultation, and can be viewed on the Caerphilly County Borough Council website under reference 25/0477/FULL.
