This is South Wales | Second World War museum in a shed bid submitted to planners

This is South Wales | Second World War museum in a shed bid submitted to planners: "PLANS to site a Second World War museum in Laugharne, which could have a potential audience of half a million, have been submitted to Carmarthenshire Council.

The application to convert a 1930s corrugated steel shed, known as Bellevue Garage, in the township's Clifton Street to a museum have been submitted by owner Andrew Isaacs through agent Carl Thornton of Sarnau Design.

The retrospective application seeks a change of use for the building, known locally as the tin shed.

Work on the museum in the shed started in January 2010 and finished in July 2011.

The shed has already held several informal displays of Second World War memorabilia.

The museum proposal itself is a collaboration between Andrew Isaacs, a community councillor in Laugharne, and Seimon Pugh-Jones, a cameraman and photographer with a keen interest in World War Two."
