Due to the increasing level of antisocial behaviour in the Aber Valley, the CCTV cameras are essential. The statistical information you have provided for the area indicates that there is a continuing need for the CCTV cameras. With issues being identified and evidence being provided from this camera throughout the last 12 months, there is a justifiable need for the CCTV to remain in place. They are an important crime prevention and security measure in the Aber Valley. Kind regards Sharon Sharon Hughes Aber Valley Community Council Hi Carl My view is they should certainly continue to be utilised, they are a aid in so many ways from crime prevention to public safety. Regards Cllr Lyndon Binding Cynghorydd Sir - Cwm Aber | County Councillor - Aber Valley Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili | Caerphilly County Borough Council Hi Carl The surveillance cameras play a vital role and remain essential for reducing and preventing and detering anti social behaviour and crime within the borough. While providing reassurance to the local community. As a Community Safety Warden for the area l can state the cameras also assist us in our role providing additional support and sense of security for our team and for evidence purposes as required. Regards CSW 110 A Jones I am of the opinion that the CCTV surveillance is still needed and should be kept operational. The statistics that accompanied your original email shows that the CCTV is still required. Cllr John Taylor Cynghorydd Sir - Cwm Aber | County Councillor - Aber Valley Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili | Caerphilly County Borough Council Hi Carl, From a Community safety point of view the CCTV is imperative with tackling the anti social behaviour, crime and disorder within the Abertridwr / Senghenydd area. It offers the residents of the area reassurance and confidence, as well as giving us the opportunity to monitor issues and identify persons of interest. Senghenydd has recently been discussed in the Community Safety Hub Tasking meetings, the area is being monitored for increased ASB. The CCTV within the area in essential in offering us additional support and information. With issues being identified and evidence being provided from this camera throughout the last 12 months, I think that there is a justifiable need for the CCTV to remain in place. Thanks Emily Connor BSc (Hons) Cydlynydd Ymddygiad Gwrthgymdeithasol | Anti-Social Behaviour Co-ordinator Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili | Caerphilly County Borough Council Hi Call I feel that the Cameras for these areas are beneficial not only to the police but to ourselves to deter the ASB and crime within the locations. Regards Margaret Margaret Reed Warden Diogelwch Cymunedol | Community Safety Warden Cyngor Bwrdeistref Sirol Caerffili | Caerphilly County Borough Council Carl. Thank you for your email correspondence and its informative information. I believe that the Aber Valley still needs to have these areas covered by CCTV. Recent Crime stats for our area has shown a worrying increase in reported antisocial attitudes and behaviour. CCTV is a valuable resource in our villages; their withdrawal would make issues even worse to our community. Thank you, Cllr John (Roberts) … Carl It goes without saying that the CCTV is essential to Policing to reduce Crime and ASB. The analysis provides data as to why CCTV is important to the delivery of a safer community in the Aber Valley. Not only will CCTV provide a view of reducing fear of crime but increase confidence in our services to support the community when they become a target of Crime and ASB to enable the Police to identify offenders or place intervention before a crime is taking place. Fully support the CCTV IN Aber Valley to remain for the above reasons Inspector Gavin Clifton Cofion gorau | Kind regards Good Afternoon, Carl With regards the annual review of the CCTV cameras in the Aber Valley and Llanbradach wards. The local policing team would request that these cameras be kept in place as their presence have helped and will continue to assist in our policing of these areas. As your stats show, the police rely on these cameras for the monitoring of live events, and to aid in detection of suspects and vehicles etc. following a crime taking place. We continue to have a problem with anti-social behaviour in the Aber Valley ward, and these cameras give us a chance to identify the offenders. We’ve also recently used these cameras to identify persons potentially linked to a drugs death, and they assisted us in identifying direction of travel and the potential address of a suspect in a spate of domestic burglaries. The Llanbradach cameras were recently used following a number of criminal damage incidents in the village, and to assist us in determining the direction of travel of a vehicle involved in a serious assault. The cameras assist the local policing team in the detection and reduction of crime and anti- social behaviour, and we know that they aid in reducing the fear of crime for the communities we serve.

  • History Located 7 Miles to the North of Cardiff, Caerphilly Sits on the Southern Edge of the South Wales Coalfield
    History Located 7 miles to the north of Cardiff, Caerphilly sits on the southern edge of the South Wales coalfield. There is no longer any active mining in the area. The first known settlers, the Celts, put up fierce fight but eventually conceded to the invading Romans who built a fort at Caerphilly in circa 78AD, north west of where the castle now stands. By the beginning of the fifth century Roman influence had waned. Saint Cenydd established a monastery on or near the site of the old fort in the 6th century. It later came under the tutelage of his son Ffili, who may be the source of the name Caerffili – Ffili’s fort. In the 9th and 10th centuries the area lay within the kingdom of Morgannwg (Glamorgan) which struggled for supremacy over its neighbouring kingdoms at the same time as being ravaged by external invaders. Despite such turbulence, the administration of Morgannwg became well established with the kingdom divided into “cantrefs” governed by a lord subject to the king, one of which was Senghenydd, an area between the rivers Taff and Rhymney extending from Brecon to the sea. This was in turn subdivided into three “cymydau” – Uwch Caiach, Is Caiach, and Cibwr. Caerphilly lay in Is Caiach. The Norman Conquest in 1066 was followed by the invasion of Glamorgan in 1090/3, but such was the resolute resistance against attempts to penetrate the hill country that for almost two centuries Is Caiach was ruled by Welsh chiefs. From 1266 this changed. The Normans assumed control over the lordship of Senghenydd and with the construction of Caerphilly Castle in 1271 the native Welsh were subject to the tyrannies of the Lord of the Manor.
