Redevelopment of Tenby's Guildhall moves forward
Work has commenced on the redevelopment of one of Wales'
former civic centres into luxury apartments.
The prime seafront site of the Guildhall and Glendower House is being transformed into 36 new and refurbished apartments with undercroft parking and landscaped gardens. The first apartments will be complete by the end of the year.
The scheme's developer, Macob Tenby Ltd, is a joint venture between Macob, Nigel Evans Property Group and Serendipity Holdings.
The Old Guildhall was formally home to Tenby Borough Council's and Tenby Town Council's offices and council chamber. From 1983, it then housed the local magistrates' court which moved out in 2003.
The building is linked to Glendower House which formerly housed the Tenby tourist information centre. The first floor of Glendower House was also formerly the offices of the Tenby employment exchange.
Wayne Rees, Technical Director for Macob said
"The development offers a combination of an extremely desirable location with breathtaking views over Tenby's beach and state of the art accommodation with undercroft parking. Interest is expected to be high."
Macob has appointed awarded winning contractors Carter Lauren Construction - who are also behind Macob's flagship office developments Bocam Park in Pencoed and Greenmeadow Springs in Cardiff.
Nigel Hanney, director of Carter Lauren said
"We are delighted to be working with Macob on yet another exciting development. The redevelopment will breath new life into the two buildings and create an exceptional living space with stunning views over North Beach and the harbour. "
The architects are Gaunt Francis and CWA Architects.
