P/06/0069 APPLICANT(S) NAME: Mr M Segal PROPOSAL: Renew application no. P/03/0135 to erect approximately 80 dwellings LOCATION: Land At Maerdy Site, Rhymney, Tredegar. This application is in respect of the renewal of outline permission for residential development with all matters reserved for subsequent approval apart from the means of access. The application was presented to the planning committee held on the 16th August 2006. Members agreed the Officers recommendation that the application be deferred to enable the completion of a Section 106 Agreement that will require: - 15% of the total number of units developed on the site shall be developed as affordable housing. - The provision of an area of open space, which is reasonably related in scale and location to the development, or alternatively, a contribution of a commuted sum will be sought for provision of off-site. - A contribution to be agreed towards the creation of or improvement to existing recreation space in the catchment area of the site. On completion of the Section 106 Agreement, officers are delegated to approve the application subject to conditions. Members should be advised that, since that committee date, despite numerous reminders this Council has been unable to obtain any response in this matter from the developer. In the circumstances it is considered appropriate that the application should be refused. RECOMMENDATION that Planning Permission is refused for the following reasons:- (1) In the absence of the completion of a Section 106 Agreement, requiring an element of affordable housing, the provision of open space or alternatively a contribution of a commuted sum together with a contribution to be agreed towards the creation of or improvement to existing recreation space in the catchment area of the site, the development would be contrary to Policy H3 and Policy L9 of the Council Approved Unitary Development Plan. PREFACE ITEM APPLICATION NO. P/06/0609 APPLICANT(S) NAME: Mr G Davies PROPOSAL: Change use of part of yard and modify Condition (7) of planning permission P/03/1260 LOCATION: Penyfan Processing And Recycling Depot, Penyfan Pond Lane, Manmoel Road, Oakdale, Blackwood. This application was reported to Planning Committee on 14 February 2007 following a site visit. A decision was deferred to allow further information to be sought from the applicant. Also the opportunity was taken to consult neighbouring industrialists. Copies of the previous reports are attached. One e-mail has been received from the neighbouring carpet factory expressing concern about the effect of airborne dust on the efficiency of their process, and the quality of the yarn and the carpet. Problems were experienced for some 18 months when the Oakdale coal tips were removed. They state that dust can by-pass filtration systems, especially during summer months when vents and doors are open, and express concern about the detrimental effect on the 350 jobs at the premises. Following the site meeting the following comments were conveyed to the applicant with a view to overcoming some of the problems observed:- • Access from Rush Drive should be considered. • The surface of the lane leading to the site should be improved and a footpath introduced. • An assessment should be carried out and submitted by an environmental consultancy of the likely impact of the new processes at the site on air quality, with particular emphasis on dust. That should then inform a scheme for the control of airborne dust. • A scheme for the prevention of mud being carried onto the highway should be submitted to include as a minimum the surfacing of a significant part of the entrance into the site, and the provision of wheel washing facilities. • A scheme of drainage should be submitted that ensures that dirty water does not pool on the lane adjacent to the entrance. • A denser scheme of landscaping should be submitted, and advice should be sought from the appropriate officers of the council as to whether it would be appropriate to carry out further screen planting in that part of Penyfan Pond Country Park on the opposite side of the lane. The applicants responded in the following manner. • There is an intervening landowner between the application site and Rush Drive. • The poor condition of the lane is due to water running from the remainder of the lane, and from the park, and the applicants have maintained the road in the past. The maintenance of the lane and the provision of a footpath are for the highway authority to consider. • A licence to operate the current process has been issued by the Environmental Health Department, and the proposed operation is a closed circuit wet process that will not generate any additional dust. • A scheme for the prevention of mud is under consideration. • A cut off drain will be provided at the entrance to the site, but this will not prevent the pooling of water in the lane and on Manmoel Road where there is little or no drainage. • A scheme of landscaping has been submitted, but it is inappropriate to plant within the Penyfan Country Park. The application is now returned to Committee for Members to determine. RECOMMENDATION that Permission is granted subject to the conditions outlined in the attached report. ________________________________________________________________________ PREFACE ITEM APPLICATION NO. P/06/0648 APPLICANT(S) NAME: Mrs J Porter PROPOSAL: Erect single storey extension LOCATION: 52 Tanybryn Pontymister Risca NP11 6JR This application was reported to the Planning Committee on 16 August 2006 with a recommendation that permission be granted; a copy of the original report is attached as an appendix. Consideration of the application was deferred to allow speakers to address the Committee, which took place at the meeting on 13 September. Consideration was further deferred for a site visit which took place on 25 September. During the discussions on site it was noted that if the roof to the proposed extension were hipped the objector’s concerns would be addressed. The application was further considered by the Committee at its meeting on 4 October, when it was resolved to defer consideration to allow the applicant to submit amended plans indicating the amended roof design, on receipt of which officers would grant permission on the basis of the amended drawings and subject to the conditions recommended in the original report. The applicant was requested in writing to submit such amended drawings and a reminder letter was sent in early March 2007. No amendment or other communication has been received from the applicant and it is considered that the application should now be determined on the basis of the scheme as originally submitted. The scheme was considered by officers to be acceptable and it is recommended that permission be granted subject to the standard condition as recommended in the original report.

  • The Involvement of the Women of the South Wales Coalfield In
    “Not Just Supporting But Leading”: The Involvement of the Women of the South Wales Coalfield in the 1984-85 Miners’ Strike By Rebecca Davies Enrolment: 00068411 Thesis submitted for Doctor of Philosophy degree at the University of Glamorgan February 2010. ABSTRACT The 1984-85 miners’ strike dramatically changed the face of the South Wales Valleys. This dissertation will show that the women’s groups that played such a crucial supportive role in it were not the homogenous entity that has often been portrayed. They shared some comparable features with similar groups in English pit villages but there were also qualitative differences between the South Wales groups and their English counterparts and between the different Welsh groups themselves. There is evidence of tensions between the Welsh groups and disputes with the communities they were trying to assist, as well as clashes with local miners’ lodges and the South Wales NUM. At the same time women’s support groups, various in structure and purpose but united in the aim of supporting the miners, challenged and shifted the balance of established gender roles The miners’ strike evokes warm memories of communities bonding together to fight for their survival. This thesis investigates in detail the women involved in support groups to discover what impact their involvement made on their lives afterwards. Their role is contextualised by the long-standing tradition of Welsh women’s involvement in popular politics and industrial disputes; however, not all women discovered a new confidence arising from their involvement. But others did and for them this self-belief survived the strike and, in some cases, permanently altered their own lives.

As part of that planning permission, details of a proposed landscape bund were submitted to the Council, with the landscape bund located in close proximity to the northern edge of the quarry. Technical reasons which have come to light following the extension works to the quarry require that perimeter mounds be constructed on areas of land with appropriate ground conditions; these areas lie approximately 40-100m further north-east and approximately 40- 70m further south-east of the original proposed landscaped bund.

  • Gelligaer Times Newsletter of the Gelligaer Historical Society No 26 DECEMBER 2012
    Gelligaer Times Newsletter of the Gelligaer Historical Society No 26 www.gelligaerhistoricalsociety.co.uk DECEMBER 2012 ANNUAL CONFERENCE REVIEW AND CHRISTMAS EDITION A message from the Chair Gelligaer Historical Society has been very busy since the last newsletter appeared. We have enjoyed fine speakers at our well-attended monthly meetings in September, October and November when former members took the opportunity to renew their membership for 2012-2013 and new members (including some young people) joined. Our talks continue to attract visitors: in September, former schoolmates came along to hear local boy Dr. Ben Curtis speak on The Wilson government and pit closures in south Wales, 1964-70, the illustrated talk (by Jeff Childs M.A.) on Roath, Adamsdown and Splott in October attracted visitors from as far afield as Abergavenny, Rhondda Valley and, unsurprisingly, Cardiff, while Dr. Elin Jones a GHS founder student member, was in the audience for Audrey Griffiths’ talk on Elizabeth Andrews in November. In spite of the fact that there were many competing attractions for local and family historians in south Wales during October 2012, our Conference at Llancaiach Fawr on October 20 was very successful, and this newsletter carries Sue Allen’s brief report on each of the five talks delivered to that day’s discerning and appreciative audience. It is not invidious to mention that, alongside over twenty of our own members, neighbouring local history societies such as Fleur-de-Lys and Pontllanfraith were well represented and the daughter and grandson of Morgan Jones M.P. travelled from Bath to hear the talk by Wayne David M.P.

The Caerphilly County Borough Local Development Plan up to 2021 (LDP) allocates land for essential new development that meets the social and economic needs of residents and business within the area and balances this with the need to conserve and protect those features of the natural and built environment that are important to us. Moreover, it helps to inform key investment decisions of business, industry and of utility providers and the infrastructure priorities of both local and national government. As Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Planning & Sustainable Development I am responsible for ensuring that the Council maintains an up to date adopted local development plan to provide the statutory framework for these important decisions to be made. This Draft Preferred Strategy represents a key stage in the revision of the existing adopted LDP.

Site description: The application site measures approximately 1.86 hectares in extent and is of irregular shape comprised of open brownfield land along with some shrubbery as well as a large pond situated to the north of the site. In topographical terms the site encompasses a moderate slope down from its western boundary with Penallta Road to its north-eastern boundary, adjacent to the pond. The site's south-eastern boundary drops significantly down towards the Engineering Hall. A drainage culvert dissects the site in a west-east direction, down from West Road down towards the Cwm Calon residential development, to the east. West Road and Penallta Road run parallel to the site's western and southern boundaries respectively whilst a Public Right of Way runs along its northern boundary, beyond which lies Penallta Industrial Estate. Located immediately east are a number of buildings that previously formed part of the Penallta Colliery Pithead Complex, including the Engineering Hall which has been converted to accommodate apartments, and the vacant bathhouse building. The land further to the north forms part of the Penallta Industrial estate with two isolated dwellings being located on the land to the west of West Road.

The taskforce was told about their priorities for the future. This formed Our Valleys, Our Future, the taskforce’s high-level plan, published in July 2017. The plan was based around the following three priority areas: Good-quality jobs and the skills to do them Better public services My local community Now into its second year of delivery, the taskforce remains committed to the actions in the plan, supporting the drive to make a positive, sustainable difference to every person living and working in the South Wales Valleys. Our Valleys, Our Future remains the key driver of the taskforce’s work as it was the result of what they were told was most important to Valleys communities. The taskforce is in place until 2021 so in this final phase it is important to maximise the potential of the expertise and resources available during this time. Whilst the taskforce will continue to work to deliver all the actions included in Our Valleys, Our Future: Delivery Plan, our efforts will focus in particular on the following seven areas.
