(All photos © Dave Maclachlan, PCNPA). 1 Welsh seascapes and their sensitivity to offshore developments No: 35 Regional Seascape Unit Ramsey Island to Skomer Island (St Brides Bay) Name: Seascape Types: THMR, TSLR Key Characteristics A large west facing bay contained by headlands, and two substantial islands to the north and south. The majority of the coastline is eroding coastal plateau with vertical, jagged cliffs interspersed with a few beaches, most notably at Newgale. Rural mixed farming inland with semi-natural vegetation on headlands and steep slopes. Sea is relatively exposed, especially around headlands and islands. Long views across the bay with islands, headlands and offshore rocks as main foci. Key cultural associations: Tourism, with several minor tourism based settlements on the coast, such as at Newgale, Nolton Haven, Little Haven, Broad Haven and small harbour at Solva. Physical Geology Complex geology of east - west trending bands of rock with Ordovician, acid tuff and fine Characteristics and coarse grained acid igneous rock to the north including Ramsey Island. This changes to Cambrian to the east and then softer Carboniferous ‘coal measure’ rocks to the south with some sandstone lithology making up the majority of the bay between protruding peninsulas. To the south, the Devonian Old Red Sandstone forms the bulk of the peninsula with Silurian rocks in isolated places and basic lava and sandstone forming the western end of the peninsula and Skomer Island. Small isolated patches of boulder clay and alluvium lie in valley floors. Coastal landform A large west facing bay around 12km across and 14km deep contained by headlands and two substantial islands to the north and south. The majority of the coastline is eroding coastal plateau with vertical, jagged cliffs around 30m AOD although Carn Llundain on Ramsey Island reaches 136m AOD and some headlands and Skomer cliffs reach 50m AOD. The coast tends to be rocky and indented with small scale headlands and coves [particularly to the north] with the exception of the broad sweep of Newgale Sands and associated valley landform and beaches at Druidstone Haven and Broadhaven. The Solva river forms a sheltered sinuous inlet to the north. The rocky islets associated with Ramsey Island e.g. Ynys Bery give further texture and interest to the coastline. Coastal landcover A rural area with pastoral agriculture and some arable fields. Semi-natural vegetation lies in generally narrow areas on cliff edges, on headlands and islands or extending inland to cover steep slopes. Settlement is concentrated in a few clusters such as at Broad Haven, Little Haven and Newgale with most being scattered settlements just back from the coast. Intertidal area The coast tends to be rocky with small scale sandy coves to the north and south and the broad sweep of Newgale Sands and beaches at Druidstone Haven and Broadhaven to the east. Characteristics of sea The sea is fairly exposed, the bay being open to the west and the prevailing winds. Newgale Beach is known for large waves suitable for surfing. Islets such as Green Scar and Black Scar to the north and Stack Rocks to the south add interest to the coastline. The Smalls, due west of Skomer, form a treacherous rocky cluster of rocks out to sea. Hinterland landform Undulating dissected coastal plateau rising to a maximum of 125m AOD with noticeable hills only to the north, east of St Davids Head i.e. Carn Llidi etc at around 180m AOD. A series of short valleys find their way to the coast. Hinterland landcover The area is rural, dominated by pasture although arable has been introduced more recently. St Davids lies inland hidden from the sea but the area is predominantly scattered settlement. Brawdy and St Davids airfields lie inland but aircraft noise is very infrequent. The A487 coastal road skirts the northern coast but is generally set back. Haverfordwest lies further inland but not intervisible with the coast. Lighting Potentially, the lightest areas are around Broad Haven and Brawdy although the latter is not fully functional at present. Another focus is St Davids and its surrounds. The more intense sources of light around Haverfordwest and Milford Haven are not intervisible with the coast, apart from a few tall structures. Lighting is limited elsewhere, with the darkest being around Skomer, Ramsey and west of Solva. 2 Welsh seascapes and their sensitivity to offshore developments Use Land/coast uses The coast is used for agriculture, limited scattered residential caravan and camping sites, leisure (especially Newgale, Broadhaven, south of St Davids), informal recreation- the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and sailing from the harbour at Solva. Sea uses Surfing and swimming, sailing from Solva, fishing, boats trips around Ramsey. Visual and How the seascape unit Coastal path; beaches such as Newgale, Broad Haven, Little Haven, Druidstone and smaller sensory qualities is experienced coves adjacent; scattered settlement such as at the locations above; caravan parks and camping sites. Degree of intervisibility Most visibility is possible from Ramsey Island and Skomer Island which screen much of the of land and sea wider sea element of the unit to the north and south. The coast from the islands eastwards has moderate visibility. The rest of the bay edge has focussed views across the bay and directly out to sea. The coastal plateau character minimises views inland. Key views to sea and Key views include from the coastal path, Wooltack Point and the A487 at Newgale. Views along the coast are across the bay and to Ramsey Island and Skomer. Milford Haven chimneys are evident. Key views to land Views are from sailing and leisure boats. Tranquillity/rem- Tranquil- The coast does have a degree of tranquillity but there is significant access via the oteness/wildness coastal path and particular loci of activity around Newgale, Broadhaven and Little Haven. Ramsey Island and Skomer are difficult to access and have a feeling of remoteness and wildness. Sense of scale Large Openness/ Moderately open enclosure Diversity Diverse Exposure The majority of the coast is very exposed. Key cultural The predominant contemporary cultural association of St Bride’s Bay is with tourism and associations leisure, with campgrounds, caravan parks, self-catering and B&B establishments providing relatively low cost accommodation. The several small coastal settlements, each with its own small (or extensive in the case of Newgale) beach, include Nolton Haven, Broad Haven, Little Haven and St Bride’s. Both islands of Skomer and Ramsey are nature reserves, the former being owned and managed by the Wildlife Trust of South and West Wales, and the latter by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds. Each island is a haven for seabirds and sea mammals, and is a popular destination for boat trips to view the variety of wildlife. Ramsey and St David’s Peninsula SPA; St David’s psac; Ramsey SSSI; Dale and Marloes SSSI. Forces for change Land/coast Recreation pressure on the coastal path and around holiday foci e.g. Newgale. Caravan parks and camping sites. Trampling of cliff top vegetation. Coastal erosion leading to cliff falls.

    Marine Character Areas MCA 19 WEST PEMBROKESHIRE ISLANDS, BARS & INSHORE WATERS Location and boundaries This Marine Character Area comprises the inshore waters off the west Pembrokeshire coast, encompassing the offshore islands of the Bishops and Clerks, Grassholm and The Smalls. The boundary between this MCA and MCA 17 (Outer Cardigan Bay) is consistent with a change from low energy sub-littoral sediment in the eastern part of this MCA to moderate/high energy sub-littoral sediment influencing MCA 17. The southern boundary is formed along a distinct break between marine sediments. The northern offshore boundary follows the limits of the Wales Inshore Marine Plan Area. The MCA encompasses all of the following Pembrokeshire local SCAs: 12: Strumble Head Deep Water; 14: Western Sand and Gravel Bars; 19: Bishops and Clerks; 28: West Open Sea; and 27: Grassholm and The Smalls. It also includes the western part of SCA 8: North Open Sea MCA 19 West Pembrokeshire Islands, Bars & Inshore Waters - Page 1 of 7 Key Characteristics Key Characteristics Varied offshore MCA with a large area of sea, ranging from 30-100m in depth on a gravelly sand seabed. A striking east-west volcanic bedrock ridges form a series of islands (Smalls, Grassholm and Bishops and Clerks), rock islets and reefs along submarine ridges, interspersed with moderately deep channels off the west coast. Two elongated offshore bars of gravelly sand lie on the seabed parallel to the coastline, shaped in line with tidal stream. Bais Bank (parallel with St David’s Head) includes shallows of less than 10m depth and dangerous shoals/overfalls.

    3 Chairman’s Notes - Annual General Meeting January 2010 The RGS year is coming to a close which means that the AGM is due. This will be held on Monday 4th January 2010 in the Sorby Room. The evening will also include a short talk on The Gower by member Barbara Barrett. The Committee will stand down and you, the members, will be required to vote in a new Committee. I hope that you appreciate that the Committee, some of whom have been involved with running the Society for over 30 years, needs fresh ideas and new faces to be able to run the Society effectively. The Committee meets approximately 6 times a year in each others homes to manage the business of the Society and is not particularly onerous. The key roles of the Committee are as follows: Chairman, Secretary, Lecture Meetings Secretary, Field Meetings Secretary, Treasurer, Proceedings Secretary, Newsletter Editor and GA Liaison. Other Committee members assist these officers with their duties. Please think about who you would like to run your Society. I am asking you to nominate who you would like (or volunteer) to be on the Committee, this could be in a specified office or an assistant to a specified office or as a member of the committee. If you would like to nominate anyone other than yourself please discuss it with them to get their agreement before making the nomination. Nominations should be sent to Ailsa Davies BEFORE the AGM in January.

  • This Walk Description Is from Happyhiker.Co.Uk St David's Head
    This walk description is from happyhiker.co.uk St David’s Head Starting point and OS Grid reference Roadside parking by St Davids City Golf Course (SM 741270) Ordnance Survey map OL35 – North Pembrokeshire Distance 6.9 miles Traffic light rating Introduction: This walk takes you to the summit of Carn Llidi - but do not panic it is only 181 metres high! However despite its low altitude, there are extensive views across to the Preseli Mountains, along the coast and Whitesands Bay (Porth Mawr in Welsh). There are remains of ancient burial chambers though they take some spotting. I photographed what I think was one then gave up! The walk overall is a very easy 6.9 miles hence the green traffic lights. There is one small section to the site of the trig point which involves a short scramble up rocks but to be honest although I did this to photograph the trig point, there are only rusty bolts remaining so purely for the view, there is not much gain from the more accessible ground. It is up to you! Refreshments and toilets are available at Whitesands Bay and I can recommend the ice cream from the shop. The walk starts from a small amount of rough roadside parking just before the entrance to St Davids City Golf Course. The only other alternative because of the narrow roads is to use the pay car park at Whitesands Bay. The parking is on the B4583 from the city of St Davids. Start: Start by walking down the road from the rough parking.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................
