Local Government Plan Preferred Strategy PDF 2 MB
ISLE OF ANGLESEY COUNTY COUNCIL Report to Executive Committee Date 14.1.2013 Subject Consultation draft Preferred Strategy Document Portfolio Holder(s) Cllr. Robert Ll. Hughes Lead Officer(s) Jim Woodcock Contact Officer Nia H Davies 01286 679890 Nature and reason for reporting To request that the Committee endorses the draft Preferred Strategy document prior to its release for consideration and approval by the Council on the 24th January 2013. A - Introduction / Background / Issues The Preferred Strategy is a vital stage in the long journey to prepare the Local Development Plan (LDP) with Gwynedd. The Strategy has been drawn-up following a number of opportunities for full participation by Ynys Mon Councillors At this stage the Council is being asked to adopt the Strategy for the purposes of public consultation. Views expressed during the public consultation period will help inform the preparation of a more detailed plan called the Deposit Plan which will set out the strategy, including strategic policies, as well as detailed planning policies. The Deposit Plan is due to be considered by Council later on in 2013. Introduction The Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 2004 requires the Council to prepare a Local Development Plan (LDP) for the development and use of land over the plan period and its policies to implement them. This Council has decided to work with Gwynedd Council to prepare a Joint LDP. Regulation 15 of the Local Development Plan Regulations requires that, before finally determining the content of its Local Development Plan (LDP) for deposit, a Council must publish its pre-deposit proposals for public inspection and comment.

A Welsh Classical Dictionary
A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

Exploring Geological Language in the Welsh Landscape
5 December 2016 An occasional supplement to Earth Heritage , the geological and landscape conservation publication, www.earthheritage.org.uk Exploring geological language in the Welsh landscape Elinor Gwynn, Language Heritage Officer, National Trust Cymru Following Earth Heritage items by Mick Stanley and Colin MacFadyen on Namescapes ( issue 39 ), this article tracks the way geology and geomorphology have influenced place names in Wales. Elinor was crowned at the National Eisteddfod in August 2016 for her collection of poems themed on Llwybrau (paths). How do you begin to explore the geological landscape lexis of Wales? The scope of the topic is vast, the journey complex. If place names themselves ARE our history, as Anthony Lias states in his book Place Names of the Welsh Borderlands , then surely geology has provided the backdrop against, and the stage on which centuries of history have been played out. It is the defining force that has shaped our nation, its history, language and culture. Wales has several layers of linguistic contact, as explained in the Dictionary of Place Names of Wales . Successive and overlapping periods in our history – Celtic and Brittonic, the Roman occupation, Anglo-Saxon settlement, Scandinavian invasions, Anglo-Norman conquests and English immigration, have all left their toponymic footprints. It’s worth bearing these influences in mind when attempting to interpret place names in the landscape. The language of our landscape illustrates both continuity and change in our history and culture. Names can be read in diﬀerent ways; at their simplest they provide a descriptive, and often poetic portrait of the country. But those words, printed on maps and etched into memories, have shadows behind them – of past lives and livelihoods, of changing settlement patterns and shifting cultures, of socio-political struggles, and of economic fortunes and failures.

[page 3] Revival Emyr Roberts REVIVAL is probably more remote from the thinking of the churches today than it has been since the beginning of Nonconformity in our land, and certainly since the Methodist Revival of over two centuries ago.∗ When at the end of October 1904, with the fire of revival in his heart, Evan Roberts felt compelled to leave the preparatory school in Castellnewydd Emlyn, Carmarthenshire, to hold revival meetings in his home town of Casllwchwr in Glamorgan, Evan Phillips the minister, who had celebrated his seventy- fifth birthday the previous week and well remembered the 1859 Revival, recognized the Spirit in the young student and advised him to go. One wonders what advice he would be given today, were he a student under the same spiritual compulsion. Some of the leaders of the 1904 Revival, such as Joseph Jenkins and W. W. Lewis, had been under the tuition of men like Thomas Charles Edwards in Aberystwyth and John Harris Jones in Trefeca, of whom the former had been profoundly affected by the '59 Revival, and the latter a leader in that same Revival.

TŶ MAWR (Formerly the Castle Inn)
NORTH WEST WALES DENDROCHRONOLOGY PROJECT DATING OLD WELSH HOUSES - Caernarfonshire TŶ MAWR (formerly The Castle Inn) 2 and 4 Castle Street, Cricieth, Gwynedd (formerly Caernarfonshire) Parish: Cricieth Grid Reference: SH 5004 3785 © Crown copyright: Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales: Dating Old Welsh Houses: North West Wales Dendrochronology Project HOUSE DETAILS: Tŷ Mawr is a substantial house of Snowdonian type presenting several features of mid/later sixteenth-century date including voussoir-headed openings, and two tiers of cusped windbraces. The timber is unusually well dressed with the removal of all sapwood. The principal chamber has a hooded fireplace and open archbraced truss. Published account in RCAHMW’s Inventory, Caernarvonshire, Volume II: Central (1960), pp. 62-3, no. 873, with an additional survey commissioned by the NWWDP available in NMRW (NPRN 32) (Richard Suggett, RCAHMW). Cantref: Dunoding Commote: Eifionydd (Atlas of Caernarvonshire pp 69-71). Dendrochronology results: Felling date range: After 1527. Lower purlin 1516; Beam (0/1). Site Master 1431-1516 gwyg2 (t = 7.1 SKERHS2; 6.1 CEFNCAR1; 6.0 CROWLE2) (Oxford Dendrochronology Laboratory [ODL]). The removal of the sapwood precludes the determination of an exact date: at least eleven rings are missing. SUMMARY: Tŷ Mawr may be of greatest significance as one of very few sites in Wales definitely associated with an early modern practitioner of medicine: it was also known as ‘Tu William feddig’, the house of William the Doctor. Little is known of this man, but it is likely that he practised in the late sixteenth-early seventeenth century. It is not known whether Tŷ Mawr was built for him, or occupied by him later.
