Proposals to turn a Tenby landmark into a visitor attraction, are set to be discussed again next week, as resubmitted plans for the resort's historic St. Catherines Island go before local councillors.

The scheme, which was turned down by members of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority's development management committee back in the summer of 2013, went before an appeal hearing a year ago, at the town's De Valence Pavilion.

Planning inspector Robert Gardner (whose recommendations were passed on to Welsh Government Ministers) ultimately dismissed this, however, due to technical issues surrounding the significance of bat survey results carried out by the project's applicants.

Now a further application has been submitted to the National Park Authority from the Tenby Island Project developer, Peter Prosser, seeking the change of use of fort and island, which is located at Castle Beach, to a visitor attraction, with aspects of the plans including gift, food and drink, and retail uses.

The application also features plans for a change of use of the generator house for ticket and retail use; the restoration and replacement of railings; the installation of two cranes and two boat landings; the construction of security residence use; toilet and pumping facilities; the installation of a cliff nature walk; signage; path lighting; and the repair of stairs and installation of new ones.

Proposals to replace the fort entrance bridge are also included in the application, which will go before members of Tenby Town Council at their meeting on Tuesday, with their recommendations set to be passed onto the National Park Authority for consideration.
