There is no restriction on which breeds (or x breeds) of sheep can be used to produce ‘Gower Salt Marsh Lamb’.

  • Baytrans Web Walks
    COASTAL RAMBLE: LLANMADOC – LLANRHIDIAN An interesting walk hugging the coastline and Llanrhidian Salt Marshes The northern part of Gower is quite different from the dramatic cliff and beach scenery of the south – this is a gentle coastline dominated by the wide expanse of the Loughor Estuary, by mud flats and salt marshes. Notably, Llanrhidian Marsh is an internationally recognised wildlife and bird habitat. Passing scattered hamlets and old farms, and at Weobley Castle, this section of the coast path links three very characteristic north Gower villages. The Walk in detail The Coast Path does not come through Llanmadoc as it detours some kilometres to the north via Whiteford Point. For this walk, alight at the Britannia Inn (GR 439934) and walk up the hill towards the village for 50 metres, turning into a cul-de-sac leading to a farm track joining the Coast Path at Pill Cottage. Turn right here* and skirt Landimore Marsh to seaward and North Hill Tor to landward. *At high tide, the section across Llanmadoc Pill may become impassable. Retrace steps to Llanmadoc then via Cheriton/North Hills Farm to re-join path at GR 454938) The path follows a level course below the steep cliffs through the hamlet of Landimore (GR 465934). From here it turns inland for about 200 metres, then left through a wicket gate leading through several fields before becoming a grassy path below Hambury Wood, a local nature reserve notable for its birdlife. Fortunately, there is very good signposting along this section which is devoid of clear landmarks. Weobley Castle appears ahead in its commanding location and the Coast Path soon bisects a causeway leading from the road two kms out into Llanrhidian Marsh.

    20. Hambury Wood Landimore, Gower, Swansea Grid References O.S. Explorer map 164 Gower. Main entrance: SS469928, Site centre: SS472929 Status Tenure The reserve was purchased in June 1977 through an appeal, and re-named by the Trust as a memorial to Col. Jo Hambury, the Glamorgan Trust’s founding Chairman. The wood is still named “Castle Wood” on O.S. maps of 1:25000 and larger scale. Size 4.79 ha (11.8 acres). Location and Just west of Weobley Castle on the steep slope of the North Access Notes Gower limestone escarpment 1.2 km east of Landimore and 1.2 km west of Llanrhidian. Access can be obtained from the unclassified Oldwalls to Llanmadoc road by way of a stile to the east of a stone wall on the north side of the road. A short walk down the field boundary gives access to the wood through a wicket gate on the western end of the reserve. Car parking on the side of the road close to the reserve is very limited. Public Transport Bus numbers 115, 116, 119 (Sundays) from Swansea Quadrant Bus Station to Llandimore. Description: Ancient woodland on an ancient sea cliff. Hambury Wood is dominated by Oak and Ash with an understorey of neglected Hazel coppice, which has become overgrown. This and past grazing by sheep has resulted in a sparse field layer. The tree canopy is augmented by some fine Field Maple, the occasional Sycamore, and a certain amount of dead and dying English Elm. The shrub layer is predominantly Hazel coppice interspersed with Hawthorn, Elder (6-7), and Holly.

Golyga ei ddaeareg fod ynddo amrywiaeth ysblennydd o olygfeydd o fewn ardal gymharol fechan, o olygfeydd carreg galch Pen Pyrrod, Three Cliffs Bay ac Oxwich Bay yng nglannau’r de i halwyndiroedd a thwyni tywod y gogledd. Mae trumiau tywodfaen yn nodweddu asgwrn cefn y penrhyn, gan gynnwys y man uchaf, Cefn Bryn: a cheir yno diroedd comin eang. Canlyniad y golygfeydd eithriadol a’r traethau tywodlyd, euraidd wrth droed y clogwyni yw bod yr ardal yn denu ymwelwyr yn eu miloedd. Gall y priffyrdd fod yn brysur, wrth i bobl heidio at y traethau mwyaf golygfaol. Mae pwysau twristiaeth wedi newid y cymeriad diwylliannol.

Yn rhai mannau mae’r hen batrymau caeau lleiniog yn parhau, gyda thirwedd “Vile” Rhosili yn oroesiad eithriadol. Ar lannau mwy agored y gorllewin, ac ar dir uwch, mae traddodiad cloddiau pridd a charreg yn parhau, sy’n nodweddiadol o ardaloedd lle bo coed yn brin. Nodwedd hynod yw’r gyfres o ddyffrynnoedd bychain, serth, sy’n aml yn goediog, sydd â’u nentydd yn aberu ar hyd glannau’r de.
