I am sincerely grateful to the efforts of everyone who has helped contribute to the making of this Plan which is so important for the future of Powys. Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs. At the same time the Plan provides the protection for our outstanding and important natural, built and cultural environments that make Powys such an attractive and special place in which to live, work, visit and enjoy. Our efforts along with all our partners must now shift to delivering the Plan for the benefit of our communities. Councillor Martin Weale Portfolio Holder for Economy and Planning

Brecon Jetties, Sailing Club Beacons National Park Authority. 100019322 2007. & Car Park Llangorse Lake is a special place enjoyed by many people especially boating enthusiasts, anglers and naturalists. It is the only large natural lake in South Wales and its great wildlife value is reflected by its designation as a site of European importance. An Advisory Group representing all the main interests has been formed to advise the owner on the use of the lake. This group introduced voluntary restrictions in 1999 to benefit the ecology of the lake and its enjoyment. The intention is to protect the reed beds, the areas of water lilies and pond weeds and to avoid excessive disturbance of birds. The restrictions have now been simplified to some extent but are still complicated because so many interests are involved. However, they will help to conserve the lake for everyone to enjoy and we ask all visitors to respect them. The map shows the restricted zones and the details are as follows.

  • The Wye Catchment Partnership Plan
    The Wye Catchment Partnership Plan Hosted By: Supported By: Version: 2019-20 1 1. Introduction: The Wye Catchment The Wye catchment covers 4,285km2 spanning two countries and five counties. The River Wye stretches for over 200 kilometres from its source at Plynlimon in mid-Wales to the Severn estuary making it the fifth longest river in the UK. For most of its length the river runs through the Welsh Marches and has many significant tributaries including the Elan, Irfon, Ithon, Lugg and Monnow. The Wye is an internationally important habitat, reflected in its designation as a Site of Specific Scientific Interest (SSSI) and Special Area of Conservation (SAC). The catchment is rich in wildlife and precious habitat which is recognised by its designated areas including the Wye Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), National Nature Reserves, Local Nature Reserves and terrestrial SSSI’s. The Wye flows through several sizeable towns including Builth Wells, Hay-on-Wye, Hereford, Monmouth and Chepstow with Kington, Leominster, Llandrindod Wells and Bromyard as the main towns within the tributary network. The main land-use is agriculture with livestock farming predominating in the north and west and intensive arable farming in the south and east of the catchment. There is some industry based around the major towns. The area offers many opportunities for water based recreation and the Wye and Lugg are unusual in that there is a public right of navigation in England. The River Wye is a well-established and nationally significant salmon, brown trout and coarse fish fishery. Elver fishing also takes place within the tidal reaches of the Wye.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. B20 - LLANGORS Introduction 1. The present community of Llangors is located in south-eastern Brecknockshire. Its topography is defined by the broadening vale of the northward flowing afon Llynfi, which at Llangors forms the largest natural lake in Powys. To the southwest, this valley is bounded by Allt yr Esgair; to the east it is bounded by Mynydd Troed, Mynydd Llangors and Cefn Moel at the western edge of the Black Mountains. The B4560 runs through the community, which is otherwise served by a network of unclassified county roads that generally run north-south to each side of the geographical barrier that is formed by the afon Llynfi and Llangorse Lake / Llyn Safaddan. Llangors is defined as a 2nd tier settlement in the Brecon Beacons National Park Unitary Development Plan, while Llanfihangel Tal-y-llyn is defined as a large village in the Powys Unitary Development Plan. The remainder of the population lives in scattered farms and dwellings and in the two rural settlements defined in the Powys Unitary Development Plan: Llanwern and Talyllyn. 2. Apart from its north-western third, this community lies within the Brecon Beacons National Park. 3. The community has a population of 1,045, an electorate of 871 (2005) and a council of 12 members. The community is warded: Llanfihangel Talyllyn with 340 electors and four councillors; Llangasty Talyllyn with 161 and three, and Llangors with 370 and five. The precept required for 2005 is £7,000, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £14.99. 4. In the 1985 Review, the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales formed a new community of Llangors by merging the then small communities of Llanwern, Llanfihangel Tal-y-llyn, Llangorse, most of the then community of Llangasty-Talyllyn and the northern half of the then community of Cathedine.
