Following reclamation the land eventually transferred in ownership to the Ystradgynlais Town Council in 1987 piecemeal development - limited by lack of funding - took place until 2004 whereupon problems were incurred by the indiscriminate burning of the gorse which has invaded the site. It was decided by the Town Council in conjunction with other interested parties to try and improve matters.
