A WREXHAM university has insisted a field under its ownership will remain fenced off even if an appeal over plans to build houses on it is unsuccessful. Controversial proposals by Glyndwr University to put 74 houses on the field in Rhosnesni were rejected in July 2019 amid widespread opposition in the community to the loss of open space. The university later installed fencing and padlocked a gate to ensure members of the public could not access the land off Dean Road, attracting anger from residents as it was regularly used by children to play sports. Glyndwr University's plans for housing on Dean Road in Wrexham have proved contentious. Source: Liam Randall - Local Democracy Reporting Service
