  • GEOGRAPHY Geography
    GEOGRAPHY Geography Introductory Notes for Teachers Methods for studying the area will obviously relate to the nature, age and level of study of the students involved. The area can easily cater for a days field study related to many issues and would provide the opportunity to demonstrate many of the fieldwork skills demanded at GCSE and A level as well as studies for younger age groups. For classroom studies the audio-visual clips, mining and quarrying photos on the accompanying CD will help bring the subject to life. Cross Curricular themes with Science and History could be developed e.g. simple biogeographical studies and geological trails across the area (the Discovery Trail route would be a good starting point). Key Stage 2 The Discovery Trail around Halkyn Mountain would be an ideal field visit as part of a geographical study of the local area. Geographical enquiry and skills can be used to study the local area and for studies of contrasting localities. This will enable students to develop a better and fuller understanding of their own local area and community within the wider context of Wales. Possible study themes 1. Identification of ways in which people affect the environment. 2. Investigation of the ways in which the environment is looked after (managed), for its present and future use (conservation and sustainable development). 3. Recognition of the variety of views about changes to the environment e.g. quarrying 4. Understanding of the responsibility of both the individual and organisations in managing the environment. Individuals opinions do matter. Many other ‘environment topics’ could be studied using this area as a ‘case study’ within your ‘Schemes of Work’.

  • Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy
    Environment Directorate Contaminated Land Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy Revision 4 | February 2013 Foreward This Contaminated Land Strategy describes how Flintshire County Council is required to identify sites within its administrative control that may be affected by land contamination. The document also explains the statutory guidance, legislative provisions, processes and procedures that the Council will follow in order to investigate those sites, to identify statutorily Contaminated Land where necessary and to remediate Contaminated Land. The Council first published its Contaminated Land Strategy in September 2002. Since then a number of investigations to assess land contamination have been carried out and significant changes to legislation and guidance documents have taken place. This revision of the Strategy has taken these changes into account and amendments have been made where necessary. This revision of the Strategy replaces all previous revisions of Flintshire County Council’s Contaminated Land Strategy. Flintshire County Council Environment Directorate Public Protection Pollution Control Section Phase 4 County Hall Mold Flintshire CH7 6NH Contaminated Land Strategy Revision 4 February 20 Contaminated Land Inspection Strategy 2 Executive Summary Land can be affected by contamination in the environment as a result of human activity and as a result of natural processes. The presence of contamination may cause harm or present risks to health, animals, buildings or the environment. However, just because contamination is present does not mean that the land is Contaminated Land or that there is a problem. On 1st July 2001, legislation requiring land contamination to be investigated and addressed was enacted in Wales. The legislation is known as Part IIa of the Environmental Protection Act 1990 and it introduced a detailed way by which land contamination could be regulated.

  • 1-History-Of-Welsh-Mining
    Information for those wishing to lead in underground environments. GENERAL HISTORY OF WELSH MINING 1. INTRODUCTION Mining in Wales and the borders has taken place from the Bronze Age right up to recent times, although there is no longer any large scale underground mining carried out in the area. It would take many books just to cover the known facts so this is only a general summary. The reader can find out much more detail by referring to the many publications available. 2. OVERVIEW a) Prehistoric to Roman Research has found that mining for copper took place during the Bronze Age around the Great Orme, Cwm Ystwyth and Llanymynech. Originally these would have been surface excavations but they soon had to follow the deposits underground as the ore became exhausted. Tools were very primitive and consisted of stone hammers and bone/antler picks. It was metals that attracted the Romans to Britain and it has been found that they mined for lead at Dolaucothi and copper at Llanymynech. It is probable that they used other sites as well but subsequent re- working has destroyed most traces of their excavations. Wales must have been an important mining area for them since they erected a lead smelter at Flint. They were also interested in the silver which occurs in galena (up to 50 ounces per ton) and they had the skill to remove this. Iron tools were introduced by the Romans, who used local slaves to work the mines. A technique much used was fire-setting, whereby a fire was lit against the rock face and later quenched with water.
