FRESH plans to double the size of a chicken farm have been revealed, six months after a previous application was refused.

‘The application by Tom Hamer and Irene Lloyd of the WL Hamer farming partnership was lodged with Powys County Council in May and went live on Tuesday.

‘The proposal is for a free-range poultry unit to house 32,000 egg laying birds at Upper Bryn Farm which is to the southeast of Abermule.

‘The farm already has a 32,000-bird poultry unit which also includes a herd of cows and a flock of sheep.

The previous application was lodged with the council in 2019.
