Vitriol in the Taff: River Pollution, Industrial Waste, and the Politics of Control in Late Nineteenth-Century Rural Wales
Rural History (2018) 29, 1, 23–44. C Cambridge University Press 2018.Thisis 23 an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:10.1017/S0956793317000164 Vitriol in the Taff: River Pollution, Industrial Waste, and the Politics of Control in late Nineteenth-Century Rural Wales KEIR WADDINGTON Cardiff University [email protected] Abstract: Claims that rural communities and rural authorities in Wales were backwards conceal not only growing sensitivity to industrial river pollution, but also their active efforts to regulate the region’s rivers. This article uses evidence from South Wales to explore rural responses to industrial river pollution and to provide the micro-contextualisation essential for understanding how environmental nuisances were tackled around sites of pollution. Efforts to limit industrial effluent at both local and regional levels highlight strategies of control, the difficulties of intervention at the boundaries of authorities, and how rural authorities were not always peripheral to an urban metropole. This lack of passivity challenges the idea that river pollution interventions merely displaced rather than confronted the problem of pollution, providing insights into how rural authorities worked, and into how those living in rural communities turned to them to clean up their environment. Introduction By the 1860s, rivers in South Wales were the most industrially polluted in Britain. Although the ebb and flow of human excrement generated complaints, for rural sanitary authorities and rural communities in Glamorgan it was the problem of industrial waste in the region’s rivers that was the crucial concern. -

Chapter 19.0 Navigation and Marine Transport
Chapter 19.0 Navigation and Marine Transport www.tidallagoonswanseabay.comwww.tidallagooncardiff.com Tidal Lagoon Cardiff Ltd 19.0 Navigation and Marine Transport 19.1 Overview of existing situation 19.1.1 Overview of Commercial Shipping Activity 19.1.1.1 The Bristol Channel and Severn Estuary is an important shipping area with large ships from national and international destinations using the estuary's ports and anchorages. The wider study area (as defined by the extent of Figure 19.1) is home to a number of significant commercial ports, in particular Bristol (Avonmouth and Royal Portbury Dock), Cardiff, Newport and Barry, with circa 8 smaller ports including Bristol City Docks and Bridgwater. Collectively these ports are an important part of the regional and national economy; in 2013 they handled around 15.5 million tonnes of cargo. This represents approximately 4% of the UK total (DfT, 2014). 19.1.1.2 Commercial vessels enter the Severn Estuary from the south-west via the deep water approaches in the Bristol Channel. Those bound for Cardiff navigate to the northwest of Flat Holm whilst those transiting to Newport, Bristol or locations up- estuary of the Severn Bridge crossings take the deep water channel between Flat Holm and Steep Holm (Figure 19.2). Vessels bound for Newport usually transit north of Flat Holm and south of Monkstone, then transit towards the Newport Channel. Vessels bound for Bristol and Sharpness navigate through the Bristol Deep and King Road channels, with vessels continuing to Sharpness on the tidal River Severn (STP, 2010). 19.1.1.3 Port access is tidally restricted, with water levels at Bristol, Newport, Cardiff and Barry controlled by lock gates. -
Place Names in Caerphilly County Borough
This publication is available in other languages and formats on request. Mae'r cyhoeddiad hwn ar gael mewn ieithoedd a fformatau eraill ar gais. [email protected] www.caerphilly.gov.uk/equalities Place Names in Caerphilly County Borough Many place names across the county borough, across Wales and the UK have existed for many centuries and often the reasons why the names exist have been forgotten or become muddled. Welsh place names are usually made up of a geographical description of their location, or relate to a church or some other significant building in the area. Settlement names can be roughly split into six “classes” or “types” of names in terms of their English and/or Welsh names. The first four types are relatively straightforward, the final two are a little more complicated:- Welsh name only - in cases such as Ynys-ddu, Llanbradach or Ystrad Mynach there are no English versions of the place name in existence or in common usage; English name only - the opposite is true for Oakdale, Nelson or Crosskeys for example where there are no Welsh versions of the place name in existence, or a Welsh name is no longer in common usage; Different Welsh and English names on a place, from a totally different origin e.g. Newbridge/Trecelyn; Standard Welsh and English names on a place, from the same origin, but having evolved in both languages, with both forms having established themselves, e.g. Blackwood/Coed Duon; Standard Welsh and English names on a place, which are very similar, with the main difference being in the spelling e.g. -

Maent yn cynnwys Caerdydd prifddinas Cymru a’r anheddiad fwyaf, yn ogystal â Chasnewydd, Cwmbrân, Pont-y-pŵl, Penarth a’r Barri. Mae’r ardal yn ffurfio coridor trafnidiaeth a datblygu prysur. Fe’i lleolir ar yr iseldiroedd arfordirol rhwng aber yr afon Hafren gyda’i lefelau, a chyrion Cymoedd De Cymru gyda’i ucheldiroedd. Mae’r ardal yn cynnwys prif borthladdoedd Caerdydd, Barri, Casnewydd, a’r rhwydwaith mewnol diwydiannol cysylltiedig. Yn ogystal mae yna ardaloedd preswyl, maestrefol helaeth a chyfleusterau manwerthu, hamdden a busnes mawr. Mae yna rwydwaith dwys o ffyrdd a rheilffyrdd prysur,gan gynnwys rhan o goridor yr M4. Mae’r tirweddau trefol wedi ehangu dros y ganrif ddiwethaf ar draws beth oedd cynt yng nghefn gwlad agored. Fe newidiwyd eu sbardunau economaidd yn ddramatig o’r cyfnodau diwydiannol i’r ôl-ddiwydiannol, gyda llawer o ailstrwythuro ffisegol yn y newid. Mewn mannau, mae rhai o’r tirweddau trefol mwyaf newydd a mwyaf arloesol Cymru yn dod i’r amlwg, gydag adeiladau pensaernïol a mannau cyhoeddus eiconig newydd. Efallai mai’r mwyaf amlycaf yw’r newid yn nociau Caerdydd. Yn y 19eg canrif rhain oedd y dociau mwyaf yn y byd ar gyfer allforio glo. Heddiw mae allforio glo wedi gorffen ac mae gan y bae forglawdd.
