  • LAMPETER VELFREY Origins Before the Norman Invasion, Wales Was Divided Into Administrative Areas Called Commotes
    LAMPETER VELFREY Origins Before the Norman invasion, Wales was divided into administrative areas called commotes. One of these was Efelffre (anglicised as Velfrey). It covered what are now the parishes of Lampeter Velfrey, Llanddewi Velfrey and Crinow. No-one knows for certain what the name means. Early Christians would establish a llan or enclosure; in it would be a church and graveyard, with a dwelling for a priest and land to support him. This is the origin of Lampeter: in Welsh Llanbedr, the llan dedicated to St. Peter. Early History Near Penlan are the remains of three Stone Age chambered tombs, erected perhaps nearly five thousand years ago. Traces of prehistoric cooking hearths have been found by the stream above Marlais View, near Coed- y-Ffynnon and towards Princes Gate. The whole parish is dotted with Bronze Age barrows and standing stones. Henry II granted Efelffre to Rhys ap Gruffydd, the leading Welsh magnate in south west Wales, in 1171. Giraldus Cambrensis recorded that by 1186 his uncles, Neolithic chambered tomb Hywel and Walter, whose beautiful mother, Nest, was the sister of Rhys ap Gruffydd, had received Lampeter and Efelffre. Perhaps one of them had the ringwork thrown up to the north of the church, and a timber fort built on top. Efelffre became a reeveship under the Lord of Narberth. His tenants here attended his Welsh-speaking court. The Lord had 60 acres of demesne land (and another motte) at Llangwathen, which fell to the Crown in 1330 when the then Lord, Roger Mortimer, Earl of March, was hanged at Tyburn.

    1 Town Tree Cover in Pembrokeshire Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Pembrokeshire will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local authorities Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will deliver the greatest

  • The Development of Key Characteristics of Welsh Island Cultural Identity and Sustainable Tourism in Wales
    SCIENTIFIC CULTURE, Vol. 3, No 1, (2017), pp. 23-39 Copyright © 2017 SC Open Access. Printed in Greece. All Rights Reserved. DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.192842 THE DEVELOPMENT OF KEY CHARACTERISTICS OF WELSH ISLAND CULTURAL IDENTITY AND SUSTAINABLE TOURISM IN WALES Brychan Thomas, Simon Thomas and Lisa Powell Business School, University of South Wales Received: 24/10/2016 Accepted: 20/12/2016 Corresponding author: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper considers the development of key characteristics of Welsh island culture and sustainable tourism in Wales. In recent years tourism has become a significant industry within the Principality of Wales and has been influenced by changing conditions and the need to attract visitors from the global market. To enable an analysis of the importance of Welsh island culture a number of research methods have been used, including consideration of secondary data, to assess the development of tourism, a case study analysis of a sample of Welsh islands, and an investigation of cultural tourism. The research has been undertaken in three distinct stages. The first stage assessed tourism in Wales and the role of cultural tourism and the islands off Wales. It draws primarily on existing research and secondary data sources. The second stage considered the role of Welsh island culture taking into consideration six case study islands (three with current populations and three mainly unpopulated) and their physical characteristics, cultural aspects and tourism. The third stage examined the nature and importance of island culture in terms of sustainable tourism in Wales. This has involved both internal (island) and external (national and international) influences.
