Ag new BA NPQH Aspire, Apply, Achieve Ymgeisio, Gweithredu, Cyflawni Transport to and from Darland from October 2015. For some students it will be easy to walk or cycle to school and we have the facilities for bike and helmet storage. We are aware, however, that Darland is an increasingly popular choice of school and that more children are travelling from outside Rossett to get here. For this reason, we have provided this leaflet to help families to make an informed choice about travelling to and from school as safely as possible. WCBC and Free bus transport If you live at least three miles from Darland High School, you may qualify for a free bus pass which can be used on certain buses only. A number of current students have these passes. For example, if you live in the HOLT area or LLAY area it is likely that you will qualify. To apply for these bus passes you need to go onto the WCBC website and follow the links for Education Transport Assisted Transport for Primary and Secondary school pupils. You can fill out an application online or print and post. If you have not already done this please do so as soon as possible. If you have any questions about WCBC transport the number is: 01978 292056. Arriva Buses Arriva public transport bus services operate between Chester and Wrexham and there are bus stops outside the school. The buses are supposed to run at 12 minute intervals. Safe Queuing on Chester Road if using Arriva We are asking for the continued cooperation of students and parents regarding which bus stops to use in the afternoon. Please could: Years 10 and 11 use the bus stop at Lavister Year 9 use the bus stop known as the ‘ lay-by’ stop Any Year 7 or 8 students who wish to use the Arriva service should use the bus stop directly outside school. It should be noted that Arriva no longer provide a bus from inside the school bus park and so there has been a situation where many students have been forced to queue up for some time at bus stops at the end of the school day. Darland has improved this situation for September 2015 We have been working with other local transport partners in order to provide a safe alternative service to different parts of the area. The buses will require a bus pass from school and information about charges has been sent home from the Headteacher. Spare letters are available at the school office. Oares of Holywell are now operating buses to and from the school bus park. The first route followed will be all stops along Chester Road through MARFORD, GRESFORD and ACTON and then into WREXHAM TOWN CENTRE (Oares ‘A’ Route). A second service (Oares ‘B’) is about to start which will provide a link between Rhosddu, Bradley, Llay and Burton. We will be looking to add additional services by the summer of 2016. Pay on the bus service Prices coaches currently operate a service from Borras Park. It is highly likely that by next term the Prices service will have changed to a bus pass only service. Please note that Darland bus passes will only be accepted on the Oares buses. They cannot be used on Arriva Service Buses. Contact Us If you have any questions about Darland bus passes, please contact the main office 01244 570588 or e-mail: [email protected] .

  • The Grouped Parishes of Llay, Rossett and Isycoed Parish Profile October
    The Grouped Parishes of Llay, Rossett and Isycoed Parish Profile October 2015 A Profile of the Diocese of St Asaph The Diocese of St Asaph is a diverse and hopeful community of faith. With roots in the Celtic church and a wealth of character and tradition, we seek to continue to uncover our shared vocation as God’s people in the Church in Wales in the north east of the Province. We are a Diocese in good heart and seek to persist in responding joyfully to God’s challenge. The Diocese follows the English/Welsh border in the east, whilst the western edge is delineated by the Conwy Valley. The northern boundary runs along the North Wales coast as far as Llandudno, but only takes in part of that town. The southern boundary runs from the lower end of Llyn Tegid (Lake Bala) across to Dolfor, just south of Newtown in Powys. Ecclesiastically it is bordered by the Dioceses of Chester, Lichfield and Hereford on the northern and eastern sides. To the south we border Swansea and Brecon Diocese and to the west, Bangor. The Diocese is predominantly rural, with many parishes having populations of less than 1000. However, there are important and continually developing industrial and commercial areas around Deeside (one of the largest industrial parks in Europe) and Wrexham and significant smaller developments along the two main arterial roads (A55 and A483). The coastal strip is home to traditional holiday resorts and tourism is an important industry in many parts of the Diocese. The largest employers are the local authorities through education and the health services with two large general district hospitals at Bodelwyddan and Wrexham.

  • Town Tree Cover in Wrexham County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Wrexham County Borough 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 Wrexham County Borough 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

Schedule of documents deposited on indefinite loan by the County Librarian per Wrexham Area Library. 20 July 1976 (Ref: DD/BE) Clwyd Record Office 46, Clwyd Street, Ruthin, Clwyd A.N. 321 July 1987 S.P.BEVON MSS. This collection consists of material received from a Wrexham solicitor, relating to his personal and business affairs, and to some of his clients. The bulk of S.P.Bevon's personal papers consist of correspondence about properties he owned in Wrexham, and reports and prospectuses of various mining and plantation concerns abroad, in which he owned shares. There is no autobiographical material. The rest of the collection has been sorted into sequence by parish, with separate sections for court cases and election papers, as there is no large quantity of material relating to an individual client. Perhaps the most interesting item is a photograph showing the range of products made by Ewloe Potteries, Buckley, in the 1920s. Other interesting subjects include Ffos-y-go Colliery, Gwersyllt, 1901-4; the appointment of a receiver for the New Llangollen Slate and Slab Company. 1898-1903; prospectus of Broughton Hall Iron Company, c.1890; complaints about conditions at Croesnewydd Military Hospital, Wrexham, 1917; and a dispute over building costs of a new church at Brynteg, 1894-5. There are also some files of papers relating to S.P.Bevon's clients, 1920-40, in the Wrexham Library collection.

However Castlering Archaeology cannot be held responsible for any errors and inaccuracies contained therein. CASTLERING ARCHAEOLOGY REPORT NO. 534, 3 SYNOPSIS This archaeological desk-based assessment and field walkover has been undertaken to accompany a planning application for residential development on redundant farmland adjoining Lane Farm, Rossett. The application site comprises two relatively flat open arable fields to the north and south of the B5012, on the eastern edge of the present village. Documentary and cartographic evidence shows that the application site lay within an agricultural landscape which remained largely undeveloped until the 19th century. Changes in the landscape east and west of the village are linked largely to an increase in housing and changes in agricultural practice. Today’s open fields have been created by modifying, amalgamating and straightening the smaller historic field boundaries to create new larger fields. Aerial photography, undertaken in 2005 and 2009, and the geophysical survey undertaken to complement this report, show that below ground evidence of these former boundaries survives on the site.
