The trust in charge of plans to develop Llanelli’s historic Railway Goods Shed will be showcasing the project at the Carmarthenshire National Eisteddfod in Llanelli.
The Llanelli Railway Goods Shed Trust is bidding to restore and redevelop the derelict Grade II listed building near the town’s railway station
Plans for the shed site currently include a community hub, arts centre, workshops, offices and a café and heritage centre.
The trust will be staging an exhibition of the latest proposals for the site at the CAVS (Carmarthenshire Association for Voluntary Services) stand at the Eisteddfod Maes at Festival Fields.
The display will be staged on Tuesday, August 5, and Wednesday, August 6.
Trust secretary Richard Roper said: “There has been a great deal of groundwork on the project since we set up on trust in 2011. We are now moving to the stage where we will be making some exciting announcements on the future of the project.
“This is a journey where we need the support of the people of Llanelli and we are trying to keep them fully involved in the process of restoring the goods shed and developing the site.”
