A48 65.48 Acres of Residential Land in Swansea SA6 6NT

Pantlasau Farm forms part of the Morris Estate and is held by the Trustees of Sir R A Morris Sketty Park Estate. During the 1780's, Sir John Morris was responsible for laying out Morriston to a high density grid pattern, creating one of the first planned industrial towns in the UK. The quality of that scheme and the legacy it established is reflected in its designation as a Conservation Area today. Pantlasau Farm has a total site area of approximately 26.5ha (65.48ha) currently in agricultural use, primarily for sheep grazing. It has a gentle slope in its southern portion before plateauing out towards the north. The site is very sustainably located between Clasemont Road (A48) and the M4 motorway, with Junction 46 just 0.5miles to the west and the DVLA offices opposite the site. Morriston Golf Club adjoins the eastern boundary. Pantlasau Farm is identified as a Strategic Development Area in the Swansea Local Development Plan (LDP) and more recently, the site has been submitted as a Candidate Site in the Swansea Council’s Call For Sites for its Local Development Plan 2 (LDP2). The proposals put forward as part of the Call for Candidate Sites is for a phased scheme of approximately 600 homes ranging from 1 bedroom flats to 4 bedroom houses together with a site for a primary school and a commercial hub both with prominent frontage off Clasemont Road.
