It presents and illustrates the findings of: A comprehensive assessment of the current level of provision of accessible natural greenspace across Bridgend County Borough. Data analysis and GIS mapping work. Recommendations for improving provision. This report incorporates the results of extensive research conducted in accordance with the Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) ‘Providing Accessible Natural Greenspace in Towns and Cities’ toolkit. The results of the project will be used to provide part of the evidence base for emerging local development plans (LDP) and in setting appropriate local targets for the provision of natural greenspace in accordance with Planning Policy Wales and Draft Technical Advice Note 16 ‘Sport, Recreation and Open Spaces’. The analysis provides an overall picture for Bridgend and also a more localised examination of issues by splitting the Borough into smaller areas (see overleaf for a map of the area covered and analysis areas used).

  • River Ogmore – Ogmore Fishing Association
    River Ogmore – Ogmore Fishing Association An advisory visit carried out by the Wild Trout Trust – July 2012 1 1. Introduction This report is the output of a Wild Trout Trust advisory visit undertaken on selected sections of the River Ogmore on waters controlled by the Ogmore Angling Association. The request for the visit was made by Mr. Ian Finylas, the club’s Chairman and Mr. Colin Chapman, the clubs Conservation Officer. Fish migration and habitat quality is heavily influenced by a large number of weirs on the main river Ogmore. Many of these structures were introduced as angling mitigation measures following the construction of the Bridgend flood alleviation scheme. In addition to the numerous large block stone weirs, the Environment Agency also maintain two flow gauging weirs on club waters. The visit was focussed on inspecting a selection of these weirs with a view to carrying out an assessment of fish passage and the impact that these impoundments might be having on in- channel habitat quality. Comments in this report are based on observations on the day of the site visit and discussions with Mr. Finylas, Mr. Chapman and Ms. Ida Tavner of the Environment Agency Wales. Throughout the report, normal convention is followed with respect to bank identification i.e. banks are designated Left Bank (LB) or Right Bank (RB) whilst looking downstream. 2. Catchment overview The River Ogmore rises at Craig Ogwr as the Ogwr Fawr, meeting with the Ogwr Fach at Blackmill, the River Garw at Brynmenyn, and the River Llynfi at Aberkenfig. The headwaters flow over a mixture of coal measures, and sedimentary bedrock with the middle reaches consisting of limestone and sandstone with overlays of glacial debris and gravels.

    Western Valleys Strategic Regeneration Area – Garw Valley Landscape Action Plan December 2010 GARW VALLEY LANDSCAPE ACTION PLAN 0 Western Valleys Strategic Regeneration Area – Garw Valley Landscape Action Plan December 2010 GARW VALLEY The Garw Valley is one of nine across the Western Valley Strategic Regeneration Area. Also refer to the WVSRA Landscape Improvement Strategy for context and SRA-wide generic projects. 1.0 LANDSCAPE OVERVIEW Steep valley sides with conifer plantations, unattractive valley floor settlements often merged, but views to upland/alpine character valley sides. Dead end valley, elevated to +200m with a distinctive microclimate. - Community First areas at: - Bettws – population 2,327 - Llangeinor – population 1,161 - Settlements along valley floor, the key settlements Pontycymer and Blaengarw have merged. - Outlier settlement at Bettws, detached from the valley floor and set in open countryside, includes social housing area owned and managed by Valleys to Coast (V2C). - Long runs of poor condition roadside railing. - Empty shops, steel shutters at Pontycymer, lifted by townscape improvements (including street tree planting, seating). - Occasional poor building design but usually at key locations eg. gateway at Pantygog, adjacent to Blaengarw village square, Richard Price Centre Llangeinor (a replacement building & upgraded environs are programmed). - Hub for residents is Pontycymer, providing supermarket, leisure centre. - Hub for visitors is Bryngarw Country Park (run down, outdated visitor facilities, not easy to find but is near Sustrans route, is the start of the Garw Valley community route and links to Sustrans route 4). - No gateway role as the valley is a dead end. - Community route for cycling, follows river – management is complicated by ownership/tenancy split, capital investment is needed to upgrade boundaries & key detractors such as poor environment around Pontycymer leisure centre.
