Plans to convert Maenclochog home to children's care home
A resubmitted planning application proposes converting Brynawel, a home in Maenclochog, from a dwelling into a residential care facility for up to two young people with learning disabilities and/or neurological differences. Up to three qualified staff would provide continuous care, while the building’s exterior, access and drainage would remain unchanged, alongside bird and bat box installations. The original proposal was refused over concerns about staff changes and increased vehicle movements. The local community council also objected, citing previous incidents involving young people absconding from similar facilities. The revised scheme argues that it would meet demand for high-quality community-based care while preserving the property’s domestic character.
