A former brake factory site in Caernarfon, Wales, is proposed for redevelopment into a data center campus. An application submitted to Gwynedd Council outlines plans for demolishing existing buildings at the former Ferodo factory and constructing new data center facilities.
The project, referred to as Bryn Coch Business Park, aims to include up to five buildings on a site totaling 300,000 sqm (3.32 million sq ft). The application was made by CarneySweeney on behalf of Gwelyfenai Limited, but details on the developer or operator are not specified.
The Ferodo factory, operational since 1962, was previously closed and has been considered for various redevelopment projects, including a 'super prison.' The site was listed for sale or lease in late 2024, with Bluefield Caernarfon Ltd owning the 40-acre property since 2008.
