A Community Orchard in Elan Village that would comprise of two parts, a double-staggered row of trees along the east side of the Village (from the bridge near No. 2 to the white rail fencing) which would be for the residents and a small area by the Village toilets for the public.
First phase planting will commence sometime in February/March and can involve community and volunteer effort. Further invites to this will be sent in due course. We also propose scattered trees between Caban View and the bridge at No.2 but the number is yet to be determined and will be monitored with the
increase of traffic.
• Village Car Park
Creation of a village car park with provision for eight cars or so, would provide safe and non-invasive parking for the increased number of visitors to the Elan Valley. There were issues in the summer of 2021 with increased parking from visitors, causing problems for the residents and the creation of the car park is hoped to provide a resolution to this problem at that bottle-neck.
Interpretive signage about the
history of the village has been factored into the plans.
