We currently have lots of time-lapse cameras out and about in different sites in Wales, including Pontypridd, Abergele, Shotton and Connah’s Quay. You can see more about these projects below:
Pensarn – Abergele
Cartrefi Conwy have started work on a new social housing development on Pensarn, North Wales. The development will offer affordable homes for people in housing need. It will create a new, highly attractive neighbourhood on the outskirts of Abergele, comprising of 128 affordable 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 bedroom homes. You can find out more about the project here >
One of our time-lapse camera is on site capturing the work, and we are looking forward to seeing the transformation of the site!
Glyn-coch Primary School – Pontypridd
Work has begun on a project to deliver an innovative new primary school and community hub for Glyn-coch. Designed by Stride Treglown, the new school will prioritise health and wellbeing of the pupils, staff, and the Glyn-coch community. Their input has been at the heart of the design process, and the new building will feature a nursery, Learning Support Classes, and a Welsh Medium childcare facility.
The new school aims to achieve ‘Net Zero’ carbon in operation and be delivered to accredited green building standards. Once completed, it will replace the Cefn Primary and Craig yr Hesg Primary schools, which will be demolished. The new school is expected to be complete and ready to welcome new students in 2026.

The main contractor on the project is Willmott Dixon, and we have been employed by them to capture the construction of the new school and community hub with our time-lapse camera.
