Roofs Taken Off to Limit Bats Future Occupation

Work to remove roofs from 14 buildings in advance of demolition has been started and almost completed over the past week. The actual roof removal had to wait until the two new owl rost and bat homes were completed. As soon as they had been signed off the contractors moved in to erect scaffolding and take off the slates and roof insulation, thereby making certain that they can never be repaired and renovated or lived in again - also so that the bats and owls will not want to take up residence again either.
In attendance were the Cambrian Ecological Partnership to check that no bats were actually in residence at the buildings being taken apart. 
Once again in their Press Release New Horizon describe the buildings they are demolishing as unsafe and uninhabitable. That would be sad news to the people who were living in them until they were moved out by New Horizon. Of course empty buildings attract people to break in and steal the electric cables and pipework out of them and with no security most buildings were probably brought into a dangerous condition under the care and ownership of New Horizon, so that they can now be demolished for a 'good' reason

East side of the power station. Viewed from the View Point in the Wylfa Nature Trail.

Demolition of more local houses

Demolition starts of local houses.

As press reports describe the new Japanese owners of New Horizon active work begins on demolishing the surviving houses around the perimeter of the land destined for the new power station. Some have already been demolished over the previous twelve months. Some of the surviving ones had been identified as being roosting sites for bats, so needed to be left until the bats had been re-located or were not roosting.
Press reports described them as being derelict or being repair. But people had been happily living in them, or the decay has occurred during the months they have been unoccupied and either not maintained or they have been vandalised since being boarded up.

Tan-yr-Alt

The steel framed workshop / warehouse downhill from the former  Firs Hotel
also demolished.

A letter to local people describe 15 notifications to remove structures which include 11 derelict houses as well as other structures including out buildings at Tre'r Gof which encompass the residential property, but with no plans to remove the house which they intend to keep occupied.
The contractor managing the demolition is Gaerwen-based DU Construction Ltd.
All materials will either be re-used on site or reclaimed or recycled.

Other properties in ownership of New Horizon are to be improved for needs of current or future tenants. Torman Cottage (adjacent to Nant Orman on Holyhead Road, Cemaes will have an application submitted to remove the planning consent that restricts its use to a holiday let, seeking to rent the property to a local tenant.
