Two adjacent modern buildings on the south side of Capel Crescent. Capel Court, opened in February 2008, contains 40 flats. It was built by Linc-Cymru in partnership with Newport City Council. It is Newport’s third extraCare scheme, designed to accommodate older people in need of care. Capel Grange is a 3-storey building. 12 of its 70 beds are dedicated EMI (elderly, mentally infirm) nursing beds. The other beds are for general nursing of the elderly in need of long-term medical care.

Viewed from the NE corner of the allotments, which are located on the south side of Capel Crescent, one of 22 allotment sites owned by Newport City Council. Residents of the city may apply to the council to rent an allotment plot, to be used for growing vegetables, flowers, etc. The blanket of snow helps reduce heat loss from the soil and maintains a higher temperature underneath than would be the case if the allotments were bare.
