  • WWII Defences on the Shores of the Mawddach Estuary Medwyn Parry RCAHMW
    WWII Defences on the Shores of the Mawddach Estuary Medwyn Parry RCAHMW WWII Defences on the Shores of the Mawddach Estuary Pillbox on the beach at Fairbourne SH 6141 1253 (PR 270356). ‘As England, in spite of the hopelessness of her military position, has so far shown herself unwilling to come to any compromise, I have decided to begin to prepare for, and if necessary to carry out, an invasion of England. This operation is dictated by the necessity of eliminating Great Britain as a base from which the war against Germany can be fought, and if necessary the island will be occupied.’ Directive o. 16, Adolf Hitler, 16 th July 1940 Background When war was declared in September 1939, the notion that Britain would be invaded was almost entirely dismissed. In October, a military exercise ‘The Julius Caesar Plan’ relied in repelling enemy invaders with ‘horsed cavalry’. Military tacticians were complacent in their attitude with home defence, relying on France (with its Maginot Line), Holland & Belgium to provide a considerable invasion ‘buffer zone’. Nothing changed their opinion due to the fact that, with the exception of the invasion of Poland, very little happened in Western Europe for several months – a period known as the “Phoney War”. Events took a dramatic turn after the 9 th of April 1940 - when German forces invaded Denmark and Norway, where the poorly equipped British Expeditionary Force was quickly forced back to Britain. Only a month later, following the stalemate on the borders of the Low Countries, France and Belgium, “Blitzkrieg” burst across the length of the Allied lines.

  • DWYRYD ESTUARY and MORFA HARLECH Component Lcas (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component Lcas (Gwynedd): Porthmadog
    SEASCAPE CHARACTER AREA 21: DWYRYD ESTUARY AND MORFA HARLECH Component LCAs (Snowdonia): Morfa Harlech; Vale of Ffestiniog; Morfa Dyffryn Component LCAs (Gwynedd): Porthmadog Location and Context This SCA is located in the northern part of the west Snowdonia coast. It includes the Dwyryd estuary from its mouth near Porthmadog to its inland tidal limit at Tan-y-bwlch. It also includes Morfa Harlech on the southern shore of the estuary, and the towns of Harlech and Penrhyndeudraeth. To the north is SCA 20: Porthmadog and Glaslyn Estuary, to the west is SCA 19: Criccieth to Mochras, and to the south is SCA 22: Mochras to Fairbourne and Sarn Badrig. View across the Dwyryd Estuary from Ynys, showing intertidal habitats, the village of Portmeirion and the mountains of Snowdonia forming the backdrop. Image © Fiona Fyfe Summary Description Views of this SCA are dominated by the broad landform of the Dwyryd estuary, with its extensive salt marshes, sand, mud and dune system (Morfa Harlech). The estuary also contains distinctive ‘islands’ and ridges of higher ground on either side. Overlooking the estuary are the contrasting villages of Harlech (with its Medieval castle on the valley side), Portmeirion with its Italianate architecture, and the industrial village of Penrhyndeudraeth. Surrounding the estuary are the wooded hills of Snowdonia, which form a majestic backdrop to picturesque views from lower land. In the eastern part of SCA, the valley narrows as the river flows inland. Here, the Afon Dwyryd has been heavily modified flows between areas of improved grazing, with main roads on both sides of the valley floor.

    ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 Written Statement ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 Aber Abermaw ©Visit Wales ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 ADOPTED VERSION Produced by © Snowdonia National Park Authority Penrhyndeudraeth, Gwynedd, LL48 6LF ( 01766 770274 Fax 01766 771211 Email: [email protected] www.eryri.llyw.cymru Photos: ©Crown Copyright (VisitWales) 2 3 ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 ERYRI LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN 2016 – 2031 FOREWORD I am pleased to introduce you to the Eryri Local Development Plan (LDP) 2016-2031, a document which sets out the 15 year land use planning framework for Snowdonia National Park. The National Park Authority receives about 500-600 planning applications each year, and the revised LDP will provide the foundation for determining each planning application that we receive. This LDP’s predecessor (Eryri LDP 2007-2022) had performed well against targets, and its Strategy was considered to be effective or ‘sound’. In view of this, and following consultation with relevant stakeholders, the Authority decided that a ‘short form revision’ was therefore considered appropriate. In simple terms, this basically means limited changes have been proposed to the revised LDP and the overall strategy for the revised LDP 2016-2031 remains the same as the previous LDP. There have been some important legislative changes in Wales over recent years, with the creation of the Planning (Wales) Act 2015, Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, and the Environment (Wales) Act 2016. These legislations have helped shape the content of this revised LDP. It has helped how we use both our land and other natural resources – both of which are essential for us to achieve the well-being of a sustainable Wales.

    National Landscape Character 31/03/2014 NLCA05 TREMADOC BAY © Crown copyright and database rights 2013 Ordnance Survey 100019741 www.naturalresources .wales NLCA05 Tremadoc Bay - Page 1 of 10 Bae Tremadog – Disgrifiad cryno Dyma gesail ogleddol Bae Ceredigion, tir llawr gwlad hynod ddiddorol a phrydferth. Dyma’r tir rhwng y môr a’r mynydd. I’r dwyrain o Borthmadog mae sawl aber tywodlyd gyda halwyndiroedd, ac i’r de mae milltiroedd o draethau agos-barhaus, ac weithiau anghysbell, â thwyni tywod y tu cefn iddynt. Mae’r tiroedd eang tua’r gorllewin o gymeriad mwy amaethyddol. Mae’r fro’n gwrthgyferbynnu’n drawiadol â’i chefndir mynyddig, Ll ŷn ac Eryri. Mae'r ddau Moelwyn, Y Cnicht, Y Rhinogydd, Yr Eifl a hyd yn oed yr Wyddfa oll yn amlwg iawn i’w gweld. Yn ymyl Porthmadog, mae mynydd ynysig llai, ond garw, Moel-y-gest yn codi’n ddisymwth o dir yr ardal hon. I’r de o Borthmadog mae'r môr a’r mynyddoedd yn cyfyngu ar led llawr gwlad, a dau’r ddau at ei gilydd ychydig i’r de o Friog. Mae llawer o bentrefi yma, ac yn gyffredinol, cymeriad gwledig, amaethyddol sydd i’r fro, ac eithrio yn nhrefi Abermo, Porthmadog a Phwllheli a’u cyffiniau. Ceir eglwysi glan môr hynafol a chestyll mawrion ar hyd y glannau, i’n hatgoffa o ba mor bwysig oedd y môr ar gyfer teithio, a phwysigrwydd strategol yr ardal hon. Awgrymir hyn yn y cysylltiad a geir, yn y Mabinogi, rhwng Harlech ac Iwerddon: ac yn ddiweddarach, adfywiwyd trefi canoloesol Pwllheli, Cricieth, Harlech ac Abermo gan dwf twristiaeth yn y 19eg ganrif.

  • Glastonbury Companion
    John Cowper Powys’s A Glastonbury Romance: A Reader’s Companion Updated and Expanded Edition W. J. Keith December 2010 . “Reader’s Companions” by Prof. W.J. Keith to other Powys works are available at: http://www.powys-lannion.net/Powys/Keith/Companions.htm Preface The aim of this list is to provide background information that will enrich a reading of Powys’s novel/ romance. It glosses biblical, literary and other allusions, identifies quotations, explains geographical and historical references, and offers any commentary that may throw light on the more complex aspects of the text. Biblical citations are from the Authorized (King James) Version. (When any quotation is involved, the passage is listed under the first word even if it is “a” or “the”.) References are to the first edition of A Glastonbury Romance, but I follow G. Wilson Knight’s admirable example in including the equivalent page-numbers of the 1955 Macdonald edition (which are also those of the 1975 Picador edition), here in square brackets. Cuts were made in the latter edition, mainly in the “Wookey Hole” chapter as a result of the libel action of 1934. References to JCP’s works published in his lifetime are not listed in “Works Cited” but are also to first editions (see the Powys Society’s Checklist) or to reprints reproducing the original pagination, with the following exceptions: Wolf Solent (London: Macdonald, 1961), Weymouth Sands (London: Macdonald, 1963), Maiden Castle (ed. Ian Hughes. Cardiff: University of Wales Press, 1990), Psychoanalysis and Morality (London: Village Press, 1975), The Owl, the Duck and – Miss Rowe! Miss Rowe! (London: Village Press, 1975), and A Philosophy of Solitude, in which the first English edition is used.
