  • Cnwc Farm, Or
    The Gnock A History of Cnwc Farmstead 1726 -1947 Robert Jeffrey Southall Text Copyright © RJ Southall 2017 Description of the ruins, plan of Cnwc and drawing of Cwnc Copyright © Paul R. Davis 2020 Individual photographs credited where possible 2 Introduction The ruins of Cnwc farmstead, variously referred to as Gnock, Gunnock, Gnoc and Knock, is situated on a platform cut into the hillside at grid reference ST 233 939 high up on Rhywsg Fach ridge between the Cwm Gofappy and Cwm Carn valleys. In the past this location was situated in the Mynyddmaen hamlet, one of three subdivisions within the parish of Mynyddislwyn. The name ‘Cnwc’ is unusual for the uplands of Gwent and its specific origins at this location are lost. The Welsh appellation ‘Cnwc’ is thought to have its origins in the Irish Gaelic language. The Irish played an important part in post Roman Wales and founded ruling dynasties in the kingdoms of Dyfed and Brycheiniog (Brecon), both place-names themselves being of Irish origin. Some Irish words were adopted by the Welsh, one such word was 'Cnwc', derived from the Gaelic Cnoc, meaning hillock, mound or protuberance. The term is a very common place name in Ireland, especially in Galway, Sligo and Mayo where it was usually anglicised into Knock. The name is quite common in Pembrokeshire but much less so in Gwent. It does however seem particularly appropriate to this particular Cwnc farm as it lies in a notch at the terminal point of the Rhyswg Fach ridge high above the Carn valley Figure 1 looking across the Ebbw Valley up at the site of the Cnwc farm in the 1920s.

  • Place Names in Caerphilly County Borough
    This publication is available in other languages and formats on request. Mae'r cyhoeddiad hwn ar gael mewn ieithoedd a fformatau eraill ar gais. [email protected] www.caerphilly.gov.uk/equalities Place Names in Caerphilly County Borough Many place names across the county borough, across Wales and the UK have existed for many centuries and often the reasons why the names exist have been forgotten or become muddled. Welsh place names are usually made up of a geographical description of their location, or relate to a church or some other significant building in the area. Settlement names can be roughly split into six “classes” or “types” of names in terms of their English and/or Welsh names. The first four types are relatively straightforward, the final two are a little more complicated:- Welsh name only - in cases such as Ynys-ddu, Llanbradach or Ystrad Mynach there are no English versions of the place name in existence or in common usage; English name only - the opposite is true for Oakdale, Nelson or Crosskeys for example where there are no Welsh versions of the place name in existence, or a Welsh name is no longer in common usage; Different Welsh and English names on a place, from a totally different origin e.g. Newbridge/Trecelyn; Standard Welsh and English names on a place, from the same origin, but having evolved in both languages, with both forms having established themselves, e.g. Blackwood/Coed Duon; Standard Welsh and English names on a place, which are very similar, with the main difference being in the spelling e.g.

  • Biodiversity Action Plan for Caerphilly County Borough Volume 1
    CCB Biodiversity Action Plan - Foreword BIODIVERSITY ACTION PLAN FOR CAERPHILLY COUNTY BOROUGH FOREWORD Last year, my fellow cabinet members joined with me in signing the foreword to the council’s draft Local Agenda 21 and Sustainability Strategy. In doing so, we accepted a collective responsibility for the authority’s commitment to balancing the demands of our society, economy and environment. We stated our intention that the authority would work to ensure that procedures were adopted to retain the principles of sustainable development at the heart of all our policies and plans, and to encourage other organisations and individuals to do the same. The work leading to the production of this, our Local Biodiversity Action Plan (LBAP), has been undertaken as a direct result of that stated intention; but this was not work carried out by the council alone, and this is not a plan owned by the council alone. This document was produced as the result of a partnership of numerous organisations and individuals, who all gave up their free time to work towards its production. The need to prepare an LBAP in the county borough arose out of growing international concern about the loss and degradation of the world’s natural resources, culminating in over 150 countries, including the UK, signing up to the Convention on Biological Diversity at the Earth Summit, in Rio de Janeiro, 1992. This instigated global efforts to halt the further loss of our diversity of species and habitats, and is being achieved in the UK through the production and implementation of LBAPs. We are very fortunate; those of us who live in the county borough of Caerphilly see green areas at every turn.
