Much of the site was formerly sand and gravel quarry and later used for domestic landfill. The area was designated as a country park in 1989. This Management Plan identifies and describes the features of and resources within Alyn Waters Country Park. It goes on to analyse the Parks development, its conservation status, its role as an educational and community resource and its value as a visitor attraction. The Park is now a popular and well-used facility. Much of it has been developed, but some decisions need to be made on how the remaining areas of the Park should develop and how the existing areas should be managed and maintained.

  • Disabled Access to the Countryside in and Around Wrexham County Borough Read on and See How You Can Enjoy the Countryside
    Disabled access to the countryside In and around Wrexham County Borough Read on and see how you can enjoy the countryside. Introduction Access to the countryside is important for everyone. The health benefits of exercise, combined with the sense of well being from having contact with nature can make the experience extremely worthwhile. Unfortunately access for all is not always possible. Following consultation with various groups for people with disabilities in the Wrexham area, Groundwork Wrexham & Flintshire have found that there is a great need for both facilities and information to provide improved opportunities for people with disabilities to gain access to the countryside. This booklet aims to satisfy the need for the information. The details provided on each location in this booklet will allow the individual to decide if the walk is suitable for his or her own needs. We hope that the walks suggested in this booklet will encourage you to visit one or more of the sites and enjoy the local countryside. Every effort has been made to ensure that the information included in this booklet is accurate. Unfortunately the nature of the countryside means that site conditions can change rapidly. 1 Groundwork Wrexham & Flintshire cannot accept responsibility for any change in circumstances or accidents occurring at sites included in this booklet. A contact number has been included for each walk so that you can ring ahead to check the conditions. If you have any feedback on this booklet. Please contact the Countryside and Access Officer at Groundwork Wrexham & Flintshire 01978 363555. Audiotapes are not available on any of the routes included in this booklet.

  • And Note (Insp019a
    WCED015A WREXHAM LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN EXAMINATION IN PUBLIC - WREXHAM COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL’S RESPONSE TO THE INSPECTORS’ POST- HEARING LETTER & NOTE DATED 13th DECEMBER 2019 (INSP019 & INSP019a) INTRODUCTION This statement sets out the Council’s response to the Inspectors’ post-hearing letters (INSP0191) and note (INSP019a2) in which they expressed concern about the soundness of two aspects of the Plan – housing requirement and delivery and Gypsy and Traveller accommodation – and required the Council to answer specific queries and submit further information/evidence. The approach that the Council has taken in compiling this report has been: a) to refer the Inspectors to evidence that the Council has already submitted, such as the background papers, hearing statements and responses to post-hearing action points b) to provide further information/evidence, as required, principally drawing from the Council’s housing and Gypsy and Traveller sites databases that underpinned the decisions to allocate (or not to allocate) particular sites, but which were only summarised in the previously submitted background documents c) to infer, from the Inspectors’ letters/note what changes to the Plan or further work might be necessary in the event that the Inspectors are not convinced by a) and b), above, that the Plan is sound and to do as much of that work as possible in the time that has been available to explore the issues and identify the implications. Some changes have already been the subject of public consultation and political endorsement and were reported to the hearings in 2019 as Matter Arising Changes (MAC), but others are new and would require consultation, etc as MAC, if proposed by the Inspectors.
