   Awaiting decision

   Decision expected by 24 September 2026, 8 weeks from validation under the statutory target for most applications. Extensions of time are common and are agreed case by case.

   Monmouthshire took a median of 53 days over the applications it decided in the last year.

This application is with Monmouthshire for determination. The council publicises it, consults neighbours and technical bodies where required, and weighs the responses against local and national planning policy.

The statutory target is eight weeks for most applications and thirteen for major development, though extensions of time are common. Comments carry most weight while the case is undecided, so check the council portal for the deadline if you want to respond.

This application sits outside the common categories, which can include county matters such as minerals and waste, works by statutory undertakers, demolition notifications and other less frequent procedures. The council record linked below sets out the specific procedure that applies, and the description above is taken directly from the published register.

  Ty Mawr Farm Bryngwyn Road Dingestow Monmouthshire NP25 4DZ

  The 180 acre landholding at Ty Mawr lies on the watershed between the Rivers Usk and Wye. We hope to add ponds and leaky dams to the land we manage, both to benefit biodiversity and to slow down flows into tributaries of those rivers: the Trothy and the Pontyrhydan Brook. The Ty Mawr fields are a mix of pasture and arable with very little ecological value. The pond proposals at Ty Mawr are designed to compliment those recently constructed on the adjacent Old Lands holding, which flow entirely into the Trothy, as well as establishing initial headwater hydrological control on part of the Pontyrhydan Brook. Ty Mawr is a Demonstration Farm for best practice regenerative farming, including Wildfarmed cereals and nutrient and livestock management with a strong focus on soil health. Ty Mawr holds knowledge exchange workshops for farmers, agronomists and other stakeholders and is therefore an excellent choice for demonstrating how Natural Flood Management can sit alongside arable management. There 7 small ponds, scrapes and leaky dams designed in conjunction with MCC.
