Community Profile – Pontneddfechan/Pontneathvaughan
Community Profile – Pontneddfechan/Pontneathvaughan Version 3 – will be updated and reviewed next on 29.05.20 Pontneddfechan Community Hall Sgwd Gwladus Pontneddfechan, spelled Pontneathvaughan in English ("bridge over the Little Neath" in Welsh) is the southernmost village in Powys and is the only area in Powys that is included in the area of benefit. It is situated in the Vale of Neath and neighbours Glynneath. The village is in Powys and borders on Neath Port Talbot and Rhondda Cynon Taf. The area is known as Waterfall country and attracts tourists from across the world. It is home to spectacular waterfalls - Sgwd Gwladus and Sgwd Eira are some of the most well-known. Dinas Rock, a steeply pitched anticline in the limestone rocks at Craig-y-Dinas is also a favourite spot for rock-climbers. The village has lots of history and heritage, there is an ongoing project on the Gunpowder Works. In 1857, the Vale of Neath Powder Company built a "gunpowder manufactory", having obtained "a licence to erect their mills over a space of two miles including the Upper and Lower Cilliepste Falls". The site was chosen because of its remoteness and because of the availability of both waterpower and of timber for the production of charcoal. The area is ranked in the bottom 50% in the Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation, however 22% of children are living in poverty and 31% have a long-term limiting illness. There are limited transport links and very few community facilities and activities taking place in the village, however it is in close proximity of Glynneath.

Cynllun Rheolaeth Bro’r Sgydau Waterfall Country Management Plan 2010 Brecon Beacons National Park Authority, Forestry Commission Wales, Countryside Council for Wales 1 2 Waterfall Country: Management Plan 2010 – 2019 Prepared by Helen Pye 2010 Brecon Contributors: Alan Bowring (BBNPA) Graham Cowden (BBNPA) Paul Dann (FCW) Patricia Doree (BBNPA) Judith Harvey (BBNPA) Su Meekins (BBNPA) Graham Motley (CCW) Ruth Coulthard (BBNPA) Paul Sinnadurai (BBNPA) Sunita Welch (BBNPA) 3 Contributing Partners Brecon Beacons National Park Authority (BBNPA) Forestry Commission Wales (FCW) Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) 4 Foreword Waterfall Country supports an immense richness of biodiversity and heritage. The importance of this area is acknowledged by the numerous designated sites it supports. It has two Sites of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI), one Special Area of Conservation (SAC), numerous Geological Conservation Review (GCR) sites, Scheduled Ancient Monuments (SAMs), listed buildings, and it falls within the Fforest Fawr Geopark. These combined designations not only reflect the international importance of this area but also afford large parts of this area protection through national and international law. The Countryside Council for Wales (CCW) have highlighted the fact that many parts of the SAC and SSSI‟s are in unfavourable condition, placing a requirement on the Forestry Commission and the National Park as major landowners to demonstrate that we are taking steps to prevent further deterioration of the site as well as bringing the site back into a favourable condition. Along with the above requirements this management plan aims to highlight the additional threats and issues faced by the area and the people that live within it, along with the urgent need to prevent further deterioration of this internationally significant site.
