  • Rhayader Has Moved!
    Stimulus question 44 Rhayader has Moved! On the A44 travelling west between Llanfihangel-nant-Melan and Penybont in Powys there are two road signs that indicate the mileage to the towns of Llandrindod Wells and Rhayader. From Llanfihangel-nant-Melan there is only one direct route using major roads to reach these towns. The first, just under half a mile after the Fforest Inn junction with the A481 shows: A44 Llandrindod Wells 12 Rhayader 15 The second sign is situated 5.3 miles further along the same road, just after Penybont. It shows: A44 Llandrindod Wells 5 Rhayader 10 Question Is it possible that all the mileages are correct or is there a mistake? Show your working clearly. Extension Question If two signposts are accurately marked as showing: Llandrindod Wells 15 Llandrindod Wells 8 Rhayader 20 Rhayader 12 What could be the distance between the two signposts? What are the maximum and minimum possible distances between the two signposts? 1 ‘Rhayader has Moved’ Question – scoring Full credit Shows the minimum and maximum possible mileages for the two towns for both signs: Llandrindod Wells: 11.5 miles to 12.5 miles, and 4.5 miles to 5.5 miles. Rhayader: 14.5 miles to 15.5 miles, and 9.5 miles to 10.5 miles. Concludes that although the mileages for Rhayader may be correct, they cannot be correct in both cases for Llandrindod Wells, if the distance between the signs is 5.3 miles. Even if the actual distance at the first sign was 11.5 miles, to then travel 5.3 miles means that the second sign is still 6.2 miles from Llandrindod Wells and so should read 6 miles at least.

  • (Liz) Fleming-Williams 2 April, 1951-10 January, 2019 a Tribute By
    Elizabeth (Liz) Fleming-Williams 2 April, 1951-10 January, 2019 A Tribute by Ray WooDs This rare image of Liz (she was always behind a camera-rarely in front of it) was taken by Rory Francis of the Woodland Trust on the occasion when Liz had persuaded the Welsh pop group Brigyn to launch their second CD inside an ancient oak tree at Rhandirmwyn, Carmarthenshire to help publicise the plight of ancient trees. With the sad death of Liz Fleming-Williams Welsh mycology lost a great supporter. Her name will not be familiar to mycologists outside Wales but within Wales she gave encouragement and support to those of us beating what at times seemed a very lonely path on the road to the acceptance that fungi needed active conservation measure too. Her home in the middle of Wales was always open to mycologists in need of refreshment on the long journey from north to south or vice-versa and it provided a useful and free meeting venue to gather the scattered troops together. Her energies raised the money to safeguard the waxcap grasslands of Gilfach Farm, Radnorshire for future generations. She was captivated by the survival of a tiny fragment of hyper-oceanic lichen community on ancient hazels in a ravine near Maentwrog in Snowdonia and once the farm came on the market threw herself into helping raise the £1.3 million the Woodland Trust needed to buy it. Her images helped promote the site and the financial target was quickly reached. As a keen photographer she brought together her own images and those of others creating one of the first ever publicity leaflet to raise awareness of the plight and importance of grassland fungi.

  • 'IARRIAGES Introduction This Volume of 'Stray' Marriages Is Published with the Hope That It Will Prove
    S T R A Y S Volume One: !'IARRIAGES Introduction This volume of 'stray' marriages is published with the hope that it will prove of some value as an additional source for the familv historian. For economic reasons, the 9rooms' names only are listed. Often people married many miles from their own parishes and sometimes also away from the parish of the spouse. Tracking down such a 'stray marriage' can involve fruitless and dishearteninq searches and may halt progress for many years. - Included here are 'strays', who were married in another parish within the county of Powys, or in another county. There are also a few non-Powys 'strays' from adjoining counties, particularly some which may be connected with Powys families. For those researchers puzzled and confused by the thought of dealing with patronymics, when looking for their Welsh ancestors, a few are to be found here and are ' indicated by an asterisk. A simple study of these few examples may help in a search for others, although it must be said, that this is not so easy when the father's name is not given. I would like to thank all those members who have helped in anyway with the compilation of this booklet. A second collection is already in progress; please· send any contributions to me.
