St. Gwrthwl’s, Llanwrthwl to St Brides, Cwmdauddwr (3 miles, mostly tarmac, fairly flat, one moderate hill) From the church turn left through the village, past the old school (now community centre) on the right and ignore the turning on the left to Penrhos. 50 yards further on, take the bridleway on the right up the hill. At the tarmac road, turn right. Follow the lane for 3/4 mile until you pass a house called Bach Y Graig on the left. A short distance after the road veers around to the left but follow a bridleway that leads straight on down to the river. Go through the gate and follow the path to the riverside. In the middle distance you can see a bridge over the Wye carrying the Mid Wales railway, closed in 1966. This is an ideal place for a paddle and if the river is low you can take off socks and shoes and wade to the other side. However, the proper footpath turns left and crosses the river by a rather scary looking suspension bridge. Despite the way it swings about a bit, this bridge is perfectly safe! Follow the footpath through a gate to Glyn Farm. Turn right onto the tarmac lane and follow the lane all the way to Cwmdauddwr past Cwmdauddwr Park on the right. Fork left at the Triangle Inn, a 16th Century drover’s Inn, and the church is on the left. Alternatively, from the farm follow the tarmac lane as far as a patch of woodland on the left. Take the farm track left and then at some farm buildings, turn right around the buildings and right again to take you back onto the tarmac lane after 1/2 mile and then left to Cwmdauddwr. .

2 Powys Local Development Plan Written Statement
Powys LDP 2011-2026: Deposit Draft with Focussed Changes and Further Focussed Changes plus Matters Arising Changes September 2017 2 Powys Local Development Plan 2011 – 2026 1/4/2011 to 31/3/2026 Written Statement Adopted April 2018 (Proposals & Inset Maps published separately) Adopted Powys Local Development Plan 2011-2026 This page left intentionally blank Cyngor Sir Powys County Council Adopted Powys Local Development Plan 2011-2026 Foreword I am pleased to introduce the Powys County Council Local Development Plan as adopted by the Council on 17th April 2017. I am sincerely grateful to the efforts of everyone who has helped contribute to the making of this Plan which is so important for the future of Powys. Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs. At the same time the Plan provides the protection for our outstanding and important natural, built and cultural environments that make Powys such an attractive and special place in which to live, work, visit and enjoy. Our efforts along with all our partners must now shift to delivering the Plan for the benefit of our communities. Councillor Martin Weale Portfolio Holder for Economy and Planning

Marteg to Newbridge, October 2012 Onwards
Marteg to Newbridge, October 2012 onwards. Map symbols: Reach Length: 12.4 miles Terms and Conditions: Canoeing can take place only when the water height is above 0.8m on the EAW gauge at Dhol Farm AND AT NO OTHER TIMES. Please note that this height restriction applies all year round, not just to the 16th March to 17th October period as with the Newbridge to Glasbury reaches. The general terms and conditions for upper Wye paddling described earlier always apply. Marteg Access/Exit Point Directions: From Builth take the A470 north, passing through Rhayader and on towards Llangurig. Just under 3 miles outside Rhayader the road curves to the right, then sharply to the left as it crosses the Marteg stream. Just past the Marteg is a large open lay-by, which is the parking area. Accessing the water: Follow the footpath at the back of the lay-by down to a small bridge crossing the river. Instead of crossing the footbridge continue walking upstream for another 20 yards to where the path drops down the water’s edge and access the river here. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS IS A WILDLIFE RESERVE SO KEEP NOISE AND DISTURBANCE TO A MINIMUM. DO NOT CROSS THE BRIDGE WITH CANOES. Rhayader Access/Exit Point (1) This exit point is for those who wish to avoid the grade IV rapids at Rhayader Bridge (highlighted by the exclamation mark on the map below), which can be a serious challenge to all but the most experienced paddler, especially in high water. Directions: From the centre of Rhayader (monument) take the B4518 (Bridge Street) in a westerly direction towards Elan Valley.

Summary 2. Housing Land Supply Appendix 1 – Site Schedules Appendix 2 – Past Completions Data Appendix 3 – Previous Land Supply Data 1. Summary 1.1 This is the Powys County Council Land Availability Study (JHLAS) for 2016 which presents the housing land supply for the area at the base date of 1st April 2016. It replaces the report for the previous base date of 2015. 1.2 The JHLAS has been prepared in accordance with the requirements of Planning Policy Wales (PPW) and Technical Advice Note 1 (TAN 1). Please refer to these documents for details of the requirements for the maintenance of a five-year housing land supply in each local Planning Authority area and the process for undertaking the JHLASs. http://gov.wales/topics/planning/planningstats/housing-land-availability-in-wales/?lang=en http://gov.wales/topics/planning/planningstats/housing-land-availability-in-wales/?skip=1&lang=cy 1.3 Section 2 sets out details of the housing land supply and how it has been calculated. It shows that based on the Table 4 calculation method set out in TAN 1 Powys County Council has 2.2 years housing land supply. In regard to the calculation method used, TAN 1 states in situations where the adopted LDP only covers part of the 5 year study period, the average annual requirement form the LDP should be extrapolated to give an estimate of the land required (See Table 4 in Annex 3 for the formula for the calculation).

Builth Wells – Glasbury, December 2018 onwards Reach Length: 24.2 miles Terms and Conditions: Canoeing can take place between 18th October and 15th March inclusive. In the event of high water outside this period, additional access is granted when the water height on the gauge at Erwood http://www.wyeuskfoundation.org/conditions/gauge1.php is above the red marker. The general terms and conditions for upper Wye paddling described earlier always apply. Builth Wells Access Point (map on p3) Directions: Follow the Builth one-way system through the high street and round until you come to the Groe public car park on your left (entrance next to the Tourist Information Centre). Unloading: The car park is a short distance to the egress point on the right bank above the bridge. Bachawy Brook Access/Exit Point (map on p3) Directions, Unloading & Parking: From Builth Wells take the A470 south towards Brecon. After approximately 6 miles, turn left crossing the Wye over the Erwood Bridge (signposted to Aberedw and Painscastle). The road passes underneath another bridge before curving to the left. Take the next left (signposted to Boughrood & Llanstephan). After 1.3 miles the road crosses the Bachawy Brook via an old railway bridge. Immediately before this bridge there is a lay-by on your left. Park here and unload. Accessing the water: Using the path from the lay-by, walk down to the Bachawy Brook, crossing it via the small footbridge. Please note that this is a permissive path, not a right of way.
