  • TŶ MAWR (Formerly the Castle Inn)
    NORTH WEST WALES DENDROCHRONOLOGY PROJECT DATING OLD WELSH HOUSES - Caernarfonshire TŶ MAWR (formerly The Castle Inn) 2 and 4 Castle Street, Cricieth, Gwynedd (formerly Caernarfonshire) Parish: Cricieth Grid Reference: SH 5004 3785 © Crown copyright: Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales: Dating Old Welsh Houses: North West Wales Dendrochronology Project HOUSE DETAILS: Tŷ Mawr is a substantial house of Snowdonian type presenting several features of mid/later sixteenth-century date including voussoir-headed openings, and two tiers of cusped windbraces. The timber is unusually well dressed with the removal of all sapwood. The principal chamber has a hooded fireplace and open archbraced truss. Published account in RCAHMW’s Inventory, Caernarvonshire, Volume II: Central (1960), pp. 62-3, no. 873, with an additional survey commissioned by the NWWDP available in NMRW (NPRN 32) (Richard Suggett, RCAHMW). Cantref: Dunoding Commote: Eifionydd (Atlas of Caernarvonshire pp 69-71). Dendrochronology results: Felling date range: After 1527. Lower purlin 1516; Beam (0/1). Site Master 1431-1516 gwyg2 (t = 7.1 SKERHS2; 6.1 CEFNCAR1; 6.0 CROWLE2) (Oxford Dendrochronology Laboratory [ODL]). The removal of the sapwood precludes the determination of an exact date: at least eleven rings are missing. SUMMARY: Tŷ Mawr may be of greatest significance as one of very few sites in Wales definitely associated with an early modern practitioner of medicine: it was also known as ‘Tu William feddig’, the house of William the Doctor. Little is known of this man, but it is likely that he practised in the late sixteenth-early seventeenth century. It is not known whether Tŷ Mawr was built for him, or occupied by him later.

    4.04.0 ANAN ASSESSMENTASSESSMENT OFOF THETHE AREAAREA ANDAND ITSITS RESOURCESRESOURCES 22 4.0 AN ASSESSMENT OF THE AREA AND ITS RESOURCES 4.1 Introduction 4.1.1 This section of the Management Plan considers the current condition of special qualities in Llñn’s AONB. It also includes an assessment of the economy which includes agriculture, fishing, other rural enterprises and tourism. A comprehensive assessment of resources is an essential part of the Management Plan. This will measure any changes in the unique attributes of the area and the success of the Management Plan. 4.1.2 Ideally, a Management Plan should include an assessment of all the qualities or resources according to “their nature, character, quality, extent and condition” (AONB Management Plans CCW, 2001). However, the ability to undertake detailed analysis is often hampered by lack of resources and information about many of these qualities. The main problem in obtaining detailed information about the extent and condition of resources within the Llñn AONB were as follows: ● lack of information – in terms of measuring the resource and/or its condition, ● lack of specific information for the AONB, ● no up to date information, ● resources that are difficult to measure e.g. scenery, culture. 4.1.3 The most up to date information that was available was used for the assessment and any gaps in information are noted. The identification of gaps in information is an important part of the Management Plan and may be adopted as a future aim or action in the Plan’s Action Programme. 4.1.4 This Management Plan seeks to identify, define and assess the special qualities of the area as effectively as possible under the circumstances.

Description: 1.1 The application was deferred at the Planning Committee on 22 February 2016 in order to assess and consult on amended plans. The application was previously deferred at the Planning Committee on 11 January 2016 in order to undertake a site visit. This site visit was undertaken on 22 February 2016. The application has now been amended to be a full application to erect eight houses on a site within the development boundary of Abererch, which was allocated within the Gwynedd Unitary Development Plan for new housing for the general market. The Development Brief for the site suggests that the site could cope with approximately nine residential units with approximately 35% of them being affordable houses. In light of reducing the number of houses that form part of the proposal from nine to eight, the number of affordable houses being offered has also been reduced from three to two. 1.2 The mixture of housing proposed on the site in its entirety includes: 2 single-storey two bedroom houses 4 single-storey three bedroom houses 2 two-storey two bedroom detached dormer houses 1.3 The external walls of the development would be finished in a 'buff' colour pebble- dash render and the roofs would be covered with slates.
