This report seeks approval to add an additional site to the above guidance which was adopted in October 2011 and to publish the updated guidance for consultation. Background 2. The Regionally Important Geodiversity Sites are a non-statutory geodiversity designation. The supplementary planning guidance helps to identify whether development has an adverse effect on the main features of interest within a RIGS. It is supplementary to Policy 10 ‘Local Sites of Nature Conservation or Geological Interest’. 3. Details of the new site are given in Appendix A. A map is awaited which will show the extent of the site. Financial considerations 4. The Authority has funding available to carry out this consultation. It is a requirement to complete a consultation for such documents to be given weight in the Authority’s planning decision making. Risk considerations 5. The guidance when adopted will provide an updated position regarding sites to be protected under Policy 10 ‘Local Sites of Nature Conservation or Geological Interest’. Equality considerations 6. The Public Equality Duty requires the Authority to have due regard to the need to eliminate discrimination, promote equality of opportunity and foster good relation between different communities. This means that, in the formative stages of our policies, procedure, practice or guidelines, the Authority needs to take into account what impact its decisions will have on people who are protected under the Equality Act 2010 (people who share a protected characteristic of age, sex, race, disability, sexual Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority National Park Authority – 27 April 2016 Page 65 orientation, gender reassignment, pregnancy and maternity, and religion or belief).

  • An Early Medieval Cemetery and Circular Enclosure at Felindre Farchog, North Pembrokeshire
    100 Archaeology in Wales 56 AN EARLY MEDIEVAL CEMETERY AND CIRCULAR ENCLOSURE AT FELINDRE FARCHOG, NORTH PEMBROKESHIRE Chris Casswell1 , Rhiannon Comeau2 , and Mike Parker Pearson3 with contributions by Mark Bowden4 , Rebecca Pullen5 , David Field 6, Charlene Steele7 and Kate Welham8 Surveys and excavation were undertaken by the Stones of Stonehenge project in 2014 and 2015 at a site near Felindre Farchog, North Pembrokeshire. The site — a 30m-diameter circular earthwork discovered from the air in 2009 — was investigated for the possibility that it might be a flattened prehistoric burial mound or even the remains of a dismantled stone circle or a small henge. Excavation revealed it to be a circular enclosure and an inhumation cemetery of early medieval type within and around an apparently natural mound. Twenty-one east- west grave cuts were identified, some of which were slate-lined. No human remains have survived in this acidic soil. The only artefact found within a grave was a small blue glass bead likely to date to the early medieval period. The burial ground is likely to date to the period before burial in churchyards became the norm, which could have been as late as the 12th century. Figure 1.

  • Pembrokeshire Rivers Trust Report on Activities
    Pembrokeshire Rivers Trust Report on activities carried out for Adopt-a-riverbank initiative Funded by Dulverton Trust, (Community Foundation in Wales) 23.10.15 to 1.11.16 3 December 2016 Page 1 of 15 Adopt-A-Riverbank Project 2015/16 The Adopt-A-Riverbank project aimed to get as many people as possible engaged in visiting and monitoring their local riverbank. The project was conceived as an initiative to develop and broaden the activities of Pembrokeshire Rivers Trust, building on projects that the Trust has been involved in over the last few years, such as The Cleddau Trail project, the European Fisheries Fund (EFF) project and the Coed Cymru Nature Fund river restoration project. Plans and funding bids were put together during the Summer of 2015 during the last months of the EFF project in order to create a role and bid for funding that would provide ongoing work for the EFF project staff. In July 2015 PRT applied to the Dulverton Trust (Community Fund in Wales) and also to a number of other funding streams including the Natural Resources Wales, Woodward Trust, Milford Haven Port Authority, Supermarkets 5p bag schemes and other local organisations. The aim was to fund a £40K 2 year project with ambitious targets for numbers of people reached and kilometres of riverbank adopted, and to create a sustainable framework for co-ordination and engagement of PRT’s volunteers. PRT was only successful with one of its funding applications; unfortunately no other funding was secured. The Dulverton Trust (Community Foundation in Wales) kindly awarded PRT £5,000.

  • News Briefing – April 2010
    North Pembrokeshire Transport Forum Fforwm Trafnidiaeth Gogledd Penfro News Briefing – April 2010 Aid From Bus, Ferry & Train Operators During The Volcanic Ash Crisis Extra foot passengers passed through Pembrokeshire ferry terminals as stranded air passengers made use of other transport modes. Capt Ian Davies, Fishguard route manager, reported to The Western Telegraph that on “some trips we’ve been taking nearly 600 foot passengers when we would normally have about 50. We have been working with Arriva Trains Wales on a daily basis and they have had to add five or six carriages”. Arriva also sent down a very helpful customer service officer to assist travellers while passenger numbers were at peak levels. Meanwhile personal contacts enabled Richards Brothers to help stranded Tenby school pupils get home from Spain. The bus company, through Cardigan twinning contacts, arranged for a French coach to pick them up at the Spanish border and take them to the ferry at Calais, where a ferry booking had been arranged by Richards, who then brought the group home from Portsmouth. Community Transport A Pembrokeshire Community Transport Forum was held at the Queens Hall in Narberth on 27th April, preceded by a workshop on manual handling for community transport - how to keep safe when assisting people into and out of vehicles. Key points from the subsequent meeting: Ceri Rees (Transport Strategy Officer and SWWITCH representative, Pembrokeshire CC): (1) The Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) has provided £100,000 funding for the proposed north-south multi user walking and cycling route. (2) Haverfordwest will receive WAG funding to develop sustainable travel projects, including a real time system for key bus stops, to provide exact arrival times.
