  • Camping in Utopia Dazzle, Silence and Activist Futures
    Abstract An activist future is my focus, this future is the planned Lammas ecovillage, whose planning application was recently rejected (September 2008), one in a long series of rejections of this application by their local planning authority, despite the introduction of a low-impact policy to the county. It is therefore still an uncertain future and one in-process. Despite its uncertain nature it has a presence in the everyday practices of those seeking to create it. These presences take the form of utopian and dystopian futures that the prospective residents of the ecovillage imagine and enact. It is these manifestations, of the Lammas futures in the present, which I have sort to unearth, using a traditional group of research method which some have argued are inappropriate to such unusual and indefinite subject matter (e.g. Law, 2004). While I contradict Law in this sense I also seek to shed light on his states of ‘dazzle’ and ‘silence’ in relation to my research, which Law argues are characteristic of the research process. I will argue that conventional methods can be used to research the unusual and indefinite such as the ways in which the future manifests itself in the present. But that perhaps there are other futures which were not and could not be revealed by the methods I utilised, this is therefore a space which future research could explore. I also argue that to truly change the way we do methods, which Law argues for, we must further unpick and unravel the research process including exploring the states of ‘dazzle’ and ‘silence’.

The development includes; • One dwelling house, designed to be an inspiring example of natural building embodying the principles behind Low Impact Development. • One barn, designed to house goats, horses and a range of land based activities including milking and seed drying. • One field shelter, which will provide shelter for grazing animals in wet/ extreme weather. • One polytunnel, which will extend the growing season and growing capabilities of the land. The residents of Bryn yr Blodau are Samara Hawthorn and her two sons, Brannoc and Taran This plan has been prepared to assist the Bryn yr Blodau residents in their intention to create a land-based low-impact lifestyle, and has been designed to provide a framework against which the sustainable lifestyle choices of the residents can be suitably assessed.

  • Making Connections: the Narratives of Motivation for Moving to an Eco-Community
    Making Connections: the Narratives of Motivation for Moving to an Eco-community Penny Clark Submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Social Research Methods Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Surrey September 2017 © Penny Clark 2 Abstract This research aims to explore and analyse the narratives that people form for their motivations for moving to an eco-community, in particular looking at how they present and interconnect their life circumstances, motivations and values, and how this informs a sense of identity. Currently, no other research contextualises perceived motivations for moving to an eco-community into a holistic narrative, so this dissertation offers a novel contribution to the body of research on eco- communities. This research adopts an interpretative, qualitative and narrative approach. Using purposive and convenience sampling, 23 participants from three eco-communities took part in face-to-face semi- structured interviews. Data was transcribed and then analysed using a mixture of content and thematic analysis. It was found that, although participants’ life experiences were diverse, there were clear commonalities which formed a fairly consistent narrative. Participants framed their lives prior to living in an eco-community as “alternative”, picking out the following as significant biographical details: unusual upbringings or lifestyles, travel, and a childhood in close contact with nature, or within a community which grew food. Participants identified mainstream society as deeply flawed, and in contrast depicted eco-communities as spaces which offered a remedy to those flaws. Their perceived motivations for moving to an eco-community were varied, but centred around a desire to connect with other people through community living, and a desire to feel a greater connection with the land.

  • Lammas Eco Village Visit and One Planet Development Update. PDF
    SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY PANEL – 25TH FEBRUARY 2016 SUBJECT: LAMMAS ECO VILLAGE VISIT AND ONE PLANET DEVELOPMENT UPDATE REPORT BY: CORPORATE DIRECTOR - COMMUNITIES 1. PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To update members of the Panel on the site visit to Lammas Eco Village, and to seek the views of the Panel on the recommendation to discuss the value of further work with stakeholders regarding One Planet Development in the county borough. 2. SUMMARY 2.1 In Nov 2014 SDAP received a report on Technical Advice Note 6 "One Planet Development", having been the first Planning Authority in Wales to approve an application under this legislation. 2.2 The Panel requested a visit to the Lammas Ecovillage in Pembrokeshire to further consider the potential regeneration opportunities offered by one planet developments. The visit was held on the 4th August 2015 2.3 The Authority has taken a proactive approach one planet developments by including one planet developments as one of the identified exceptions to the settlement boundary policy in the draft replacement Local Development Plan. 2.4 At this stage it is not clear how much demand there would be for a Lammas type development in Caerphilly. It is recommended that officers discuss, with stakeholders, potential demand for one planet developments in the county borough to assess the value in further work. 3. LINKS TO STRATEGY 3.1 The Planning Policy Wales, Technical Advice Note 6, “One Planet Development, Planning for Sustainable Rural Communities” links to the following strategies: Caerphilly Local Development Plan “Living Better, Using Less”, Sustainable Development Strategy, 2008. “Caerphilly Delivers” Single Integrated Plan, 2013 – 2017 1 4.

Lammas Low-Impact Initiatives Ltd 2 1. Executive Summary 1.1. The Lammas Project aims to deliver a successful low-impact living development in South West Wales which will achieve positive benefits for the environment, local community and economy. The achievements of the settlement will be exploited to multiply sustainable benefits through its use as a research and demonstration resource, to promote best practice and support the development of similarly successful projects. In particular Lammas aims to demonstrate the viability of low impact development as a settlement model that has the potential to rejuvenate the Welsh rural landscape and economy. Thus we propose a pioneering project that shall act as a milestone and a reference point for future sustainable development possibilities. 1.2. The concept is that of a new build low-impact permaculture development of 9 dwellings, centered around a community hub building and village green. The dwellings will merge with the natural environment that surrounds them. The buildings will be highly innovative and earthy, using the latest environmental technologies combined with local natural materials. The dwellings will be sited on smallholding plots that will allow residents to substantially meet their needs from the site through agriculture, horticulture and forestry.
