This framework will also be applicable once the emerging Wrexham Local Development Plan (LDP) has been adopted (known as the Air Products site in the emerging LDP). 1.2 The Brief will help to inform any future development proposals and will begin to explore design parameters which can be used to provide a bespoke masterplan for the site. An appropriate development response will be of great benefit to the wider area and future generations. In order to ensure this is achieved the following overarching Vision has been developed: “This site, at the heart of Acrefair, shall be a key location and catalyst for the wider renewal of the Village and surrounding area. It shall utilise the existing qualities of the site and exploit the growing leisure and cultural interest in the Llangollen Valley, being a Gateway and springboard into the Dee valley and beyond to Snowdonia. The site shall provide opportunities for leisure, recreation, active sports, play, retailing, jobs and a choice of housing and shall be an integral part of the village, seamlessly sitting within the landscape and townscape and providing a positive contribution towards the whole area.” 1.3 The Brief includes: - detailed contextual and technical information about the site and surrounding environment; - guidance on the design submission requirements: and - sets out the requirements of the developer/landowner in terms of their response to the Brief. -

The population of the community including Brymbo Village and the villages of, Tanyfron and Bwlchgwyn plus several rural Hamlets is, 4836. Brymbo first makes an appearance in written documents as early as 1339, although the area was clearly occupied long before (read on for the discovery of ‘The Brymbo Man’) at this stage the area was a township. In 1410, The Burgesses of the nearby settlement of, Holt were given the rights to dig for Coal in the areas of, Harwd and Coedpoeth. Harwd, was an early name used for what is now Brymbo – this was derived from the English name, Harwood (Harewood) and referred to a common in one part of the township. During the 15th Century, Landowner, Edward ap Morgan ap Madoc constructed what was later to become Brymbo Hall and subsequently the home of his decendents, The Griffith Family. Following the rights given to the area for coal mining in 1410, the industry continued on a small scale. This was until an expansion in activity during the late 18th Century. The industrialist, John “Iron Mad” Wilkinson purchased Brymbo Hall and developed the estate, the development meant that mining for Coal and Ironstone could begin. -
