He served in the R.A.F in Anglesey as a meteorological officer for several years during the Second World War and, having graduated in geography at the then University College of Nottingham in 1941, developed a major interest in the geography of Anglesey. This became by far the main object of his research whilst on the staff of the geography department in the University of Nottingham from 1947 until his retirement in 1985. Mrs Barnes and his friend and fellow geographer Prof.E.M.Rawston hope that the copious files of his research may prove useful to students interested in the geography and history of Anglesey. Most of thefiles are based on Anglesey and Arfon - named Monarfon by Frank A.Barnes. Materialfrom this collection must be acknowledged to Frank ABarnes.

  • Anglesey & Gwynedd Joint Local Joint Development Plan 2016-2026 Item
    Anglesey & Gwynedd Joint Local Joint Development Plan 2016-2026 Item:- Deposit Plan Part 2 - Maps Ref ID 1824 - Page 111 - Map 118 - Bryn Du Re - Planning Approval for 12 Affordable Houses granted 2014 although part of the JLDP 2016-2026. ==================================================================== My previous statements on this item remains true and accurate. This comment indicates the degree of serious unsoundness that exists in the existing presented JLDP and the inadequate considerations given to the provision and location of Affordable Housing in Anglesey, and the serious consequences of locating Affordable Housing which do not have the benefit of adequate services and facilities. I stated in my earlier submission that the Anglesey County Council, (ACC), and the JLDP provide guidance on the location of Affordable Housing and state that they should be located in settlements where there are public facilities to support them. Grossly contrary to this guidance Bryn Du is a substantial linear village about 1 km long, and estimated to be of over 100 dwellings, between Llanfaelog Church and Ty Croes Train Station -(which provides a limited, almost virtual service which renders it unfit for purpose). The press statement issued by the Group Cynefin Housing Association and Anglesey County Council Housing Department on 26 May 2015 at the start of construction of the 12 Affordable Houses allocated to Bryn Du indicates how remote these organisations are from their own Council Guidance and the realms of reality:- “Grŵp Cynefin are working in partnership with Anglesey Council’s housing services to develop four small-scale sites in Bryngwran, Bodedern, Holyhead and Llanfaelog. The four developments were announced during a visit to one of the sites, the Bryn Du development in Llanfaelog, which consists of six homes (3 bedroom) and six smaller homes (2 bedroom).

The impact assessment for the turbine has been commissioned by Engena Limited (The Old Stables, Bosmere Hall, Creeting St Mary, Suffolk, IP6 8LL). The local planning authority is the Isle of Anglesey County Council. The planning reference is 20C27B/SCR.

  • Anglesey Plants and the Flora Group in 2014: Ian Bonner
    Anglesey Plants and the Flora Group in 2014: Ian Bonner (As appeared in the Welsh Bulletin of the BSBI No.95 February 2015) Before the first indoor meeting at Treborth in March Pat Denne used the 9597 records added in 2013 to update the map showing the total taxa recorded in each of the 800 monads. Andrew Dixon made an electronic version of it available for subsequent reference. At the meeting it was again agreed to concentrate effort on collecting monad data toward the Atlas 2020, a future county flora and keeping the Rare Plant Register up to date. Barry Wrightson kindly agreed to take over the circulation of information about recording days and the coordination of bookings. Over the weekend of 26-27th April Professor John Richards and Dr Tim Rich led a Taraxacum workshop at Treborth, which included field visits to parts of Anglesey and Caernarfonshire. Some 39 taxa were noted on Anglesey, of which 26 were new VC records and will be published in Plant Records in due course. This illustrates the need for targeted recording of difficult taxa to back up basic monad coverage in the run-up to Atlas 2020. Atriplex species (Oraches) on coastal strandlines come into this category. They featured in the 2013 Report and Paul Green came up in early September to assist and make collections. Based on further work this year, it appears that as well as six species, the Anglesey coast may have a complex of four different hybrids. Material is now with the BSBI Referee for the genus. Atriplex portulacoides (Sea-purslane) is one that is easy to spot.
