A timber-framed development by the Gwalia Housing Society built in 1997 to the designs of Design Partnership Wales, comprising of 52 bungalows and two-storey flats and houses. 40 of the bungalows and flats were built to high thermal environmental standards. The dwellings were built with 'south-facing living rooms and bedrooms arranged around a sun store from where warm air flows into the house.’ Colquhoun: 'The north-facing rooms have small windows and receive warm air from the sun store via a ventilation system. Other energy saving features were breathing wall construction, substantial insulation, heat recovery ventilation using solar collectors, and heating by means of a combined heat and power district heating system.' The scheme, researched by Urbanism Environment and Design (URBED), reduced energy consumption by 25%.
