  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

  • Bridgend County Borough Profile – 2018
    Bridgend County Borough Profile – 2018 Introduction Bridgend County Borough is located in the heart of South Wales, centered between the principality’s two main cities; Cardiff to the east and Swansea to the west. The county borough is bordered by Neath Port Talbot to the west and north, Rhondda Cynon Taff also to the north and north east, and by the Vale of Glamorgan to the east. It has an area of about 25,500 hectares and has a population of 143,400 (ONS Population estimate). Extending approximately 20km from east to west, the area encompasses the Ogmore, Garw and Llynfi valleys to the north, and bordering the Bristol Channel to the south. The main commercial centres are Bridgend and Maesteg and the seaside resort of Porthcawl. Bridgend is the largest of these towns and is the administrative centre for the area. The county borough benefits from excellent transportation infrastructure with the M4 motorway crossing the southern part of the county borough in an east-west alignment, providing speedy access to Cardiff, Swansea and the rest of South Wales and beyond. There are three motorway junctions (35 – 37) within the county borough. Additionally, an inter-city high speed rail service linking the area with the whole of the national rail network provides fast and efficient rail transport whilst Cardiff Airport is only 15 miles away. Bridgend is also well connected to the sea ports, with Barry, Cardiff, Port Talbot and Swansea within 30 minutes drive-time. Figure 1 above shows the county borough’s main roads and settlements Support for business in Bridgend County Borough Bridgend County Borough falls within the West Wales and Valleys area for European regional aid purposes.

  • 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 ...........................................................................................................................

The audit of Children’s Playing Space reveals that there is an approximate total of 69.14 hectares of land available for recreational activities. This represents on a County Borough wide basis (and based on the minimum FIT standard of 0.8 hectares per 1000 population), an overall deficiency in Children’s Playing Space of approximately 38.22 hectares. The sub-area/settlement analysis enclosed in this document is however based on the 2001 census population, due to the detail available at the local level. In geographical terms, the areas of greatest deficiency in Children’s Playing Space are the large urban centres of Bridgend, Maesteg, and Pencoed. Porthcawl and much of the Ogmore, Garw and Llynfi Valleys also illustrate a significant deficiency in provision. The only areas with a surplus of Children’s Playing Space provision are the group settlement area of Tondu/Coytrahen in the Valleys Gateway Sub-area and all of the Pyle/Kenfig/Cornelly Sub-Area, are the only areas with a surplus of. In neither area, however, is there a particular excess of provision.
