  • Affordable Housing Provision – September 2012
    Schedule of Questions to Participants 10.30am Lyn Hambidge, Head of Housing Commissioning, PCC Short presentation describing: • your role in the provision of affordable housing; and • your experience of contributing to the provision of affordable housing in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park; also • Any observations you may wish to make on the comparison between PCC’s and PCNPA’s policies on the effectiveness in meeting the county’s affordable housing needs. Questions 1. What do you consider are the most significant challenges facing the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority in helping to deliver affordable housing? 2. What actions are needed to address or mitigate these challenges? 3. The Authority’s supplementary planning guidance sets out terms for the provision of low cost home ownership and rented properties by private developers which mirror the provisions in the social rented and the ‘home buy’ style schemes used by Registered Social Landlords. If the provisions were relaxed for private developers would this increase the provision of affordable housing in this National Park? 4. Are you aware of any exemplar approaches to affordable housing delivery that this Authority could learn from? 5. Is the level of housing need a more significant issue in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park than outside it? 6. Under the Council’s Local Development Plan policies how long will it take to address housing need (including the backlog)? 7. What is the Council’s position on suspending the Right to Buy and Right to Acquire in this National Park?

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................

Whether they mounted their attacks from the north or the south, when Norman barons invaded Wales after the Norman Conquest of 1066, they almost invariably ended up in West Wales and consolidated their position by building fortresses. Initially, these were simple “motte and bailey” constructions, typically built on a mound with ditches and/or wooden barricades for protection.

  • THE NEWS of DINAS 1894 – 1900 Transcribed from the COUNTY ECHO
    THE NEWS OF DINAS 1894 – 1900 transcribed from THE COUNTY ECHO DINAS HISTORY SERIES his book is a transcription of all the Dinas news items from The County Echo, a Fishguard-based newspaper, for the years 1894, Twhen the newspaper commenced publication, to 1900 inclusive. The content is remarkable for its comprehensive coverage of village life. The correspondent(s), perhaps unwittingly, produced a social history of Dinas in the last seven years of the nineteenth century, one which almost reads, without editorial help, as a connected narrative. A picture emerges of a lively, sometimes controversial, but confident community in the far-south-western fringe of Wales at the very end of the Victorian era. The way of life recorded is both rural and truly parochial, but always tempered with the globe-trotting adventures and tragedies of the many sailors and master mariners from the village. This was still the age of the horse and cart, with bicycles being a novelty. Chapel and church life, along with deferential accounts of the clergy involved, inevitably take a prominent part in the narrative as do the fulsome accounts of funerals and tragedies; however, social innovation in the form of a Regatta in 1899 is proudly recorded. The Temperance Movement, so vitally important at the turn of the century, is faithfully described in its manifestations from hayfield to chapel. The text is presented without editing or alteration, variable spellings and local usage being preserved; where some doubt exists over the original, then the editorial convention of square brackets is used. Only one comment is made and that to explain a deliberate policy of concealment by the correspondent.
