TWO construction companies have agreed to pay a total of £150,000 after repeated pollution incidents at a tributary of the River Alyn in Wrexham.

- By DAVID POWELL Daily Post Reporter david.powell@reachplc.com

Bellway Homes Ltd and Anwyl Construction Ltd caused repeated pollution incidents into Singrett Brook.

Natural Resources Wales (NRW) said the firms, responsible for the Maes y Rhedyn and Fern Meadow/Dol Rhedyn housing developments, caused several silt pollution incidents between 2022 and 2024 due to a lack of effective controls to stop muddy water running off their sites and entering the nearby brook.

The companies share responsibility for a surface water drain connecting the development sites to the brook, said NRW.

Despite a warning letter in 2021, further pollution was confirmed on at least five occasions, impacting around 300 metres of Singrett Brook and causing visible discolouration in the River Alyn, says NRW.
