	1937	Earliest date that the site was first used as for landfill. At this time it was thought to be owned by the Neath Rural District Corporation. Source video interview with the granddaughter of the original site manager*
	1999	First planning approval given at NPTC
	2008	A planning application is made that identifies that the land is contaminated, the chemical test and a human health risk assessment
	2008	Mike Cuddy of "The Cuddy Group" makes a donation of £10,000 to the then local labour MP, Peter Hain which Peter failed to declare. This coincides with a planning application for development at the site to the council which at the time was Labour controlled.
	2008-2010	A series of plans designed to remove the requirement for further testing or remediating the land take place. The chemical test remained buried on the planning website until found and highlighted by residents in 2020. in the planning meeting P2020/0195, the Contaminated Land Officer identifies that the test in 2008 was insufficient to quantify the level contamination which identifies that the Environmental Protection Act 1990 was breached in 2010. The breach was first suggested to the council in April 2020 and information to confirm this was submitted to the planning committee on 7/9/2020 in the form of a document. council-of-death-report - CLICK HERE
