Cathcob Playing Fields
Another housing development in St. Mellons is on the way but this one will bring improvements to sporting provision in the Ward. During the last administration Trowbridge Ward Councillors persuaded the Council to allocate around £250,000 raised from the sale of the land to cover the cost of upgrading Cathcob Playing Fields.
The Council has submitted a planning application for residential development new homes on the land (which is adjacent to Cathcob
Playing Fields). The land will then be sold to developers.
The £250,000 raised by the sale
will be spent on draining the fields and erecting
perimeter fencing in an attempt to prevent the fields being used by motor-vehicles and "stray" horses. Once completed this work should bring the fields up to the standard required for all-year use and another of the Trowbridge Ward Councillors main objectives in 1999 will have been achieved.
