How to Get to Pilton House Gower Using Various Types of Transport how to get to pilton house gower using various types of transport how to get to pilton house gower – by car the main motorway through most of south wales, is the m4. when travelling to pilton house gower from the eastern end of wales, one should leave the m4 motorway at junction 42 (j42) and join the a483 signposted to swansea. remain on that road (dual-carriageway) until you cross the river tawe, at which point you will now be on the a4067, on which road you will need to remain until you reach the village of mumbles. (‘landmarks’ along the way are; sainsbury’s, lc2 leisure centre, tesco’s, civic centre (formerly county hall), swansea university, sea views (on your left), a mini-roundabout and the west cross inn). when you reach the next mini-roundabout, you will see the white rose ‘pub’ located diagonally opposite. turn right here to enter newton road (the b4593) which has shops on both sides. at first, the road gradually rises, and then becomes a little steeper (the local police station is to your right) until the road reaches what is known locally as the ‘top shops’, but keep driving straight on until you reach some traffic lights. at the traffic lights (a school is to your right) please turn left, and then follow the road as it first of all slightly bends to the right before going up a steep hill and then round a long (steep) right hand bend. The road now flattens out, and is fairly straight for a few hundred metres, but then the road bears sharply to the left and goes up a short hill, at the top of which are crossroads, where you will need to turn right. stay on this road (which has a few bends and gets narrower further on), until you see a newsagent (newton news) on your right hand side. pilton house gower will now be on the left hand side, ‘facing’ you, and parking is available either opposite the property, or behind the ‘wall’ to your right. hopefully the above road maps and satellite view of and for pilton house gower will be of use.

On 16 June 2016, Network Rail gave notice of its intention to dispose of land at Swansea station, Swansea (the land), in accordance with paragraph 7.2 of condition 7 of its network licence. The land is described in more detail in the notice (copy attached). 2. We have considered the information supplied by Network Rail including the responses received from third parties you have consulted. For the purposes of condition 7 of Network Rail’s network licence, ORR consents to the disposal of the land in accordance with the particulars set out in its notice. Reasons for decision 3. We are satisfied that Network Rail has consulted all relevant stakeholders. We note, however, that Network Rail’s consultation evidence fell outside the six month period 1 referred to in our guidance on land disposal by Network Rail. 4. However, having considered the details of the proposed disposal and the responses to Network Rail’s consultation we have concluded that it will not be necessary for Network Rail to reconsult its stakeholders. We note that the responses to the consultation were not significantly outside the six month time period and there were no material changes concerning the proposed disposal since the consultation was carried out. Also, there were no objections received from the consultees. 5. In considering the proposed disposal we also note that: • there is no evidence that railway operations at Swansea station would be affected adversely; and • no other reasonably foreseeable railway use for the land was identified.
