HISTORY

DINAS POWYS (Vale of Glamorgan) is a large village of about 8000 inhabitants, five miles from the Capital City of Cardiff and four miles from the town and port of Barry. The nearest town is the resort of Penarth, two miles away.

It is believed that occupation of the area began in prehistoric times. Excavations have revealed evidence of a substantial Iron Age hill fort at the northern end of Cwm George which was occupied for many centuries until the Norman Conquest. Evidence of Roman occupation was confirmed by the finding of a Romano/British farmstead on the Common. Today the Norman occupation can be seen in the ruins of the castle built near the site of the Iron Age fort by Robert de Sumeri. He was granted the Lordship of Dinas Powys by Robert Fitzhamon, the Norman conqueror of Glamorgan.

The Common, the Twyn, the remains of the mill and early cottages can still be seen in the old village centre (now a Conservation area) as evidence of medieval and early modern times. St. Andrew's Church, dating from the twelfth century, was the early focus of worship in common with the adjacent villages of Llandough, Michaelston-le-Pit and Sully which also have their medieval origins and churches.

Until the late nineteenth century, the community numbering about four hundred people was largely employed in agriculture and associated trades on the farms and estates surrounding the village, the largest of which were owned by the joint Lords of the Manor, the Jenners of Wenvoe and the Lees of Dinas Powys. The opening of the railway station on the Barry Railway in 1888 enlarged horizons and led to a greater variety of employment and an increase in the population. After the Second World War, the industrial development of Barry and the need for more housing led to the building of housing estates in the Murch area east of the main road and railway. Development at Eastbrook and, by the 1970s, the estates of Valley View and Southra Park greatly expanded the size and population. A third shopping area and community facilities in the Murch provided another centre for the village.

POPULATION AND EMPLOYMENT from 2001 CENSUS

Over 60% of residents, aged 16 to 74, were in employment with most travelling to neighbouring towns to work. Among the 2.5% unemployed 26% were aged 50 or over, 11% had never worked and 28% were long term unemployed.

In 2001, 19.5% of the residents were under 16 and 16.7% between 60 and 74 with 8.6% of 75 years or more. The average age of 41.6 years compares with that of 39.3 for the Vale of Glamorgan and 38.6 for England and Wales. In our community 13.3% provide unpaid care to family or neighbours compared with an average of 10% for England & Wales. The population was 97.6% white with a slightly higher number of residents of other ethnic groups than the average for England and Wales.

LOCAL AMENITIES

TRANSPORT

Bus services connect the village with Cardiff, Barry and Penarth and rail services with Barry and Cardiff. There are two railway stations, Dinas Powys and Eastbrook. Eastbrook station is Park & Ride. The car is the chief means of transport and there is increasing traffic congestion within the village. The position of Dinas Powys on the A4055 road linking Cardiff and Barry has led to an increase in traffic, possibly 20,000 vehicles daily passing through the village. This volume is increasing the need for a bypass.

SHOPS AND BUSINESSES

Many long established village trades and businesses have been replaced by the service sector in the last thirty years. The majority of outlets are situated in the three main shopping areas of the old village Square (The Twyn), Cardiff Road and the Murch and comprise two post offices (with banking facility), two chemists, two supermarkets, two newsagents, one general mini-market, a delicatessen, a greengrocer, one butcher, two florists, a print shop, betting shop and funeral director, as well as other specialist shops. National Westminster is now the only bank and offers a counter service only, with the main branch in Penarth. There are four ATM cash points - one on Cardiff Road at garage, one at the village Post Office and two at the Parade in the supermarket and newsagent. There is one petrol filling station and one repair garage, two estate agents, four hairdressers/barbers, three beauty parlours - one for dogs only, six fast food outlets and a shop selling school uniforms. Three public houses serve the village, in the Twyn (Village Square), dating back to the seventeenth century. There is a restaurant in the old village, cafes and a garden centre in Sully Road. There is also a taxi service and milk deliveries.

MEDICAL SERVICES

The Health Centre on Cardiff Road is shared by five doctors in two practices, the Family Practice and the Group Practice. The nearest hospital is Llandough which includes care of the elderly, maternity, mental health and orthopaedic units. The Llandough and University Hospitals are managed as a single trust which includes community services. For minor accidents, outpatients can attend Barry Community Hospital but the main Accident & Emergency Centre is at the University Hospital of Wales. There are two dental practices (non NHS) and one optician in the village.
