The Cyfarthfa ironworks, northwest of Merthyr Tydfil was established in 1765 by Anthony Bacon and William Browning and Watkin George. Richard Crawshay (1739-1810) leased the works from Bacon's family in 1786. He had much knowledge and experience of the British iron business. In 1794, he became the works owner. By the end of 1780, Cyfarthfa was producing over 2,000 tonnes of bar iron annually. The railway boom helped profitability after 1820. By 1840 there were eleven blast furnaces, one hundred puddling furnaces and six rolling mills. The works developed a reputation for good quality naval cannon; Admiral Nelson visited the works in 1802. In 1803, 1500 people were employed at the Cyfarthfa Ironworks, and it was said that it was the biggest ironworks in the world. After 1810, following the death of his brother Richard, William Crawshay managed the works with his son William II, whose son, Robert Thomson Crawshay, took over in 1847. In addition to the Cyfarthfa Works, the Crawshay bought Hirwaun Ironworks (operated 1817-1850s) and the Forest Iron Company. On Robert's his death Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru = The National Library of Wales Tudalen | Page 3 GB 0210 CYFHFA Cyfarthfa Papers, in 1879, the Cyfarthfa works was converted to a steel production plant by his son, William Thompson Crawshay. Cyfarthfa closed in 1921; dismantling commenced in 1928. The fanmily's main seat was Cyfarthfa Castle, but it also bought estates at Hilston Park, Monmouthshire, and Caversham Park.

    Rowlestone and Kentchurch Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study THE SKYDMORES/ SCUDAMORES OF ROWLESTONE, HEREFORDSHIRE, including their descendants at KENTCHURCH, LLANCILLO, MAGOR & EWYAS HAROLD. edited by Linda Moffatt 2016© from the original work of Warren Skidmore CITATION Please respect the author's contribution and state where you found this information if you quote it. Suggested citation The Skydmores/ Scudamores of Rowlestone, Herefordshire, including their Descendants at Kentchurch, Llancillo, Magor & Ewyas Harold, ed. Linda Moffatt 2016, at the website of the Skidmore/ Scudamore One-Name Study www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com'. DATES • Prior to 1752 the year began on 25 March (Lady Day). In order to avoid confusion, a date which in the modern calendar would be written 2 February 1714 is written 2 February 1713/4 - i.e. the baptism, marriage or burial occurred in the 3 months (January, February and the first 3 weeks of March) of 1713 which 'rolled over' into what in a modern calendar would be 1714. • Civil registration was introduced in England and Wales in 1837 and records were archived quarterly; hence, for example, 'born in 1840Q1' the author here uses to mean that the birth took place in January, February or March of 1840. Where only a baptism date is given for an individual born after 1837, assume the birth was registered in the same quarter. BIRTHS, MARRIAGES AND DEATHS Databases of all known Skidmore and Scudamore bmds can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com PROBATE A list of all known Skidmore and Scudamore wills - many with full transcription or an abstract of its contents - can be found at www.skidmorefamilyhistory.com in the file Skidmore/Scudamore One-Name Study Probate.

  • Outdoor Education
    Appendix A – FUTURE INCOME GENERATING IDEAS Outdoor Education Future Income Generating Ideas 2019 – 2024 1. Scene Setting: Gwent Outdoor Education Service (GOES) has existed since the early 1970’s with a remit to provide outdoor education i.e. ‘fully engage students and teachers in a lesson, all the while embracing the outdoors’. This is an important definition to consider as there is a distinct difference between outdoor education and the provision of outdoor activities, as provided by many private sector companies such as PGL and is clearly the USP for the service. The Council operate and manage GOES via a Shared Service Agreement on behalf of the partner authorities i.e. Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council, Newport City Council and Torfaen County Borough Council and currently operates across three residential centres at Hilston Park near Monmouth, Gilwern (both of which are owned by the Council) and Talybont owned by Newport CC. The service currently provides around 20,000 visitor days annually, the vast majority being residential school groups from South East Wales. Around 90% of clients are regular, repeat users and the service also works with adult and youth groups from all over the UK. All groups are provided with bespoke programmes designed to achieve their specific desired outcome including confidence building, self- reliance, team development, enjoyment, activity skills, risk management and environmental awareness. A review was commissioned in June 2015 as the first stage of a process to determine the future direction of GOES. Initial findings identified a long established service benefiting from subsidies derived from an agreement between partner authorities to reduce the cost of residential trips for low income families.
