The Gower Landscape Partnership (GLP) is managing a number of significant initiatives designed to preserve and repair distinctive landscape and heritage features and to assist in the interpretation and understanding of the rich cultural and ecological heritage on Gower. The Glamorgan-Gwent Archaeological Trust is a key GLP partner, alongside seventeen other organisations that have come together in a collaborative agreement to protect, conserve, manage, understand and inform on Gower’s special qualities. The project used field walking as a way of connecting people with the landscape and raising awareness of the historic environment. Instruction was given in field walking and finds processing and further training sessions were carried out. Further sessions covered the responsible finding and reporting of archaeological objects, providing an introduction to the Portable Antiquities Scheme and the Treasure Act, map regression, Archwilio (Historic Environment Record), Cynefin (Tithe Maps) and how to use and interpret aerial photographs. The field walking events were attended by a large number of volunteers, as were the subsequent finds processing sessions. There were activities suitable for people of all ages and abilities. Having different activities accessible to all meant that GGAT could work with Knelston Primary School and Swansea Young Archaeologists Club. Future Community Heritage Wardens were chosen from the volunteer base, as people that showed both great interest and commitment to the history and archaeology of Gower. These community wardens were given additional background training in the legislation that is already in place to protect the historic environment assets and landscape of Gower. This information is essential for the long-term protection of the historic environment in general, as well as for the correct and responsible treatment and reporting of artefacts found during metal detecting, field walking, gardening or a stroll on the beach. The field walking events took place at Monksland Farm, Scurlage between the 27th to 28th February 2016 and at Bank Farm, Scurlage between the 1st and 2nd March 2016. The location of fields for the events were chosen by volunteers, with professional guidance, through the research carried out at the training sessions which showed that there was a high possibility for archaeological finds in both these areas. Members of the Swansea Heritage Metal Detecting Club and Swansea Metal Detecting Club took part in the project and worked closely with GGAT. Education regarding the correct procedures for detector use, and dealing responsibly and legally with the resulting finds will help to protect the archaeology of Gower in the future. The archaeological work will be undertaken to the professional standards laid down by the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists. Acknowledgements The project was managed by Richard Lewis BA MCIfA (GGAT Head of Projects) and the fieldwork was undertaken by Sophie Lewis BA ACIfA (Archaeologist), Sarahjayne Clements BA MA PCIFA (Archaeologist), Rhodri Kemp BA (Archaeologist) and Charlotte Bellamy BA PGCert (Archaeologist). The report was compiled by Sophie Lewis and Sarahjayne Clements and illustrations produced by Paul Jones PCIfA (Senior Illustrator) and Charlotte James-Martin 2 Gower Landscape Partnership: Field Walking BA ACIFA (Project Officer). The specialist reports were provided by Charlotte James-Martin (GGAT) BA PG Cert ACIFA, Hannah Bowden (GGAT) BA, MSc, Daria Dabal (freelance) MA and Dr Elizabeth Walker (National Museum Wales) Thanks are extended to all the volunteers and heritage wardens who played a vital role in the project and collected much of the survey and research data and also to the landowners for making the project possible. The authors would also like to thank to Steve Sell for his continued support throughout the project and members of Swansea Metal Detecting Club and Swansea Heritage Metal Detecting Club for their valued input, and Knelston Primary School for continued close involvement.

    17th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Table Mountain with view of Sugar Loaf v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Evening walks: These are about 2-3 miles and we normally provide these in the summer. Monday Short walks: We also provide occasional 2-3 mile daytime walks as an introduction to walking, usually on a Monday. Saturday walks: We have a Saturday walk every week that is no more than 6 miles in length and these are a great way to begin exploring the countryside. Occasionally, in addition to the shorter walk, we may also provide a longer walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice.

There are few socio-economic assets at risk from coastal erosion or flooding along this frontage and the recommended approach is for relocation of assets rather than defence construction.

  • Have You Seen Our UFO?
    Have You Seen Our U.F.O? ( Unidentified Floating Object ) TheSouth Wales Porpoise Project has placed 5 submarine hydrophones (PODS) in the Bristol Channel to help us understand more about the movements and numbers of Harbour porpoise around our coasts. All the PODS are identified by floats labelled “Scientific Equipment - 01639 710239”. The PODS are passive detectors. They are weighted to the sea bed and record the ultrasound clicks of passing porpoise. The PODS are battery powered and will be serviced monthly during our twelve month study period. They do not affect or disturb sealife. The PODS are spread in a rough line from Kenfig round to Carmarthen Bay (see map). If you see one, please leave it where it is. Would you like to help us? We are always interested to hear about any porpoise you encounter whilst at sea. Your observations are of immense value to us. If we’ve placed a POD on a patch of water you regularly visit, you could also help us by letting us know if it wanders off (exact GPS co-ordinates of PODS on request). The South Wales Porpoise Project is a joint effort between the Gower Marine Mammals Project, LocalAuthorities, CCW and others. Tofind out more about us or tell us what you’ve seen, contact Rob Colley on 01639- 710239. Alternatively, visit our website:www.gmmp.org.uk or email [email protected].
