He was one of the founders and the first honorary secretary of the Welsh Bibliographical Society, and honorary secretary and editor of the Celtic Congress. He did freelance work throughout his life, including for the reading and editorial section of the Oxford University Press. He worked to improve the study of librarianship in Wales. He was a successful competitor at the National Eisteddfod in literary competitions, and was an active member of the Gorsedd. His main interest, however, was the history of the vale of Neath; his magnum opus, The history of the vale of Neath, was published in 1925.

OSWALD ROAD, OSWESTRY, 1878. PREFACE F all the works which have been written relating to the general or family history O of North Wales, none have been for centuries more esteemed than the History of the Gwydir Family. The Hon. Daines Barrington, in his preface to his first edition of the work, published in 1770, has well said, "The MS. hath, for above.a cent~ry, been so prized in North Wales, that many in those parts have thought it worth while to make fair and complete transcripts of it." Of these transcripts the earliest known to exist is one in the Library at Brogyntyn. It was probably written within 45 years of the death of the author; but besides that, it contains a great number of notes and additions of nearly the same date, which have never yet appeared in print. The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first editiun, edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. The second was published in Mr.

  • Heritage Audit
    Dulais Valley Partnership Heritage Audit May 2008 Background The Dulais Valley Partnership works in partnership with a number of agencies, such as the local authority, education and training institutions, Economic Development Agencies, voluntary organisations, democratically elected representatives and active community members to find solutions to the social and economic deprivation of the Dulais Valley. The staff of the Dulais Valley Partnership works with local volunteers, implementing a number of projects. In January 2008 a Community Heritage Officer was appointed on a two year Heritage Lottery funded project. Part of the role was to carry out a heritage audit of the Dulais Valley to inform plans and link with the wider framework. Sources consulted The basis of the audit involved consulting readily available archaeological and historical information from various sources including databases, documentary and cartographic. The following repositories of information were consulted: • West Glamorgan Archive Service (WGAS) : Historic maps including OS maps from 1876 to the present day, Tithe Map circa 1845 • Royal Commission for Ancient and Historic Monuments in Wales (RCAHMW) : National Monuments Record (NMR) • CADW : Listed Buildings • Glamorgan Gwent Archaeological Trust (GGAT) : Sites and Monuments Record (SMR) • Countryside Commission for Wales (CCW): Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) • Acciona Energy UK Ltd: Sites within the site boundary and within a 1 km study area. Scheduled Ancient monuments (SAM) Workshops and Open Days As well as the above sources a Workshop was held at the DOVE Workshop on Wednesday 5 March 2008 with members of the Cwm Dulais Historical Society. The aim was to identify sites of significant heritage interest.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M25 - LLANFIHANGEL Introduction 1. The present community of Llanfihangel lies in the Montgomeryshire hill country, where the terrain rarely rises above 1,000 feet. A number of watercourses and their valleys criss-cross the community: to the south the upper reaches of the river Efyrnwy and its small tributaries the nentydd Dolwar and Llwydiarth, and in the north the valley of the nant Alan. Likewise, a number of routes criss-cross the landscape: the B4382, B4395 and the B4393 being the main, with all but the latter, which leads to Lake Vyrnwy, being of little more than local importance. Llanfihangel and Dolanog are defined as small villages in the Powys Unitary Development Plan. The remainder of the population of this community lives in scattered farms and dwellings and in the rural settlement of Pont Llogel (Llwydiarth). 2. The community has a population of 516, an electorate of 410 (2005) and a council of 8 members. The precept required for 2005 is £3,200, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £12.81. 3. In the 1986 Review the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales redrew the southern boundary of this community to include the settlement of Dolanog and its surrounding area within the new community of Llanfihangel. This entailed a number of transfers of areas to the new community: an area to the south of the settlement and including Gwaenynog, Tirdu and Gartheilin from the then communities of Llanfair Caereinion and Llangyniew, an area to the west of the settlement at Penisacyffin and taking in the wall of the Efynrnwy valley from the then communities of Llanerfyl and Llangadfan, and an area to the east of the settlement at Wern-y-wig and Glan-yr-afon-uchaf from the then community of Llangyniew.

Context 1.1 It is vitally important for the planning procedure to correspond to the needs of the county's communities and widespread perception suggests that insufficient consideration is given to matters such as the economy when determining planning applications. Consequently, a decision was made to carry out a scrutiny investigation on the planning arrangements, and consider the Council’s planning procedures and how well they correspond to the economic needs of the county, as well as other factors. 1.2 It must be noted that this investigation is specifically relevant to the Gwynedd Council Planning Authority Area only, as the Planning Authority for the Park area is the Snowdonia National Park Authority.
