  • Captain David Jones, 10Th Battalion (1St Rhondda) Welch Regiment
    Captain David Jones, 10th Battalion (1st Rhondda) Welch Regiment. Captain David Jones was born in Llanddewi-Brefi, near Tregaron in 1893. After leaving Tregaron County School, he held teaching posts in schools in Llanddewi-Brefi and Pontrhydfendigaid, before going to Aberystwyth University. While he was at University he was a member of the Officer Training Corps, and joined the army in 1916. In a letter home to his mother, he explains why he felt compelled to join up: “Cofiwch da chwi fod y wlad hon bob munud yn disgwyl yr Almaenwyr i lanio yma, wedi hyny ni fyddwn ond fel y Belgians drueiniaid a’u cartrefi wedi eu rhwygo. Credaf ymhellach y buasai’n well gennych golli un mab na cholli’r holl deulu.” [“Remember that this country is expecting the Germans to land at any moment, and that then we’ll be like the Belgians, with our homes destroyed. I think you’d rather lose one son than lose the whole family”.] Captain Jones fought in the Mametz Wood offensive, and died on 12th July 1916, aged 25. He has no known grave, but his name is on the Thiepval Memorial to the missing of the Somme. National Library of Wales Trefor Lewis, Royal Army Medical Corps (RAMC) (Featured in the ‘Remembering for Peace’ exhibition) Trefor was born in Aberystwyth and attended the County School / Ysgol Ardwyn, Aberystwyth. He was appointed as a 'trainee librarian' in the National Library in August 1912. On 27th October 1915 he left the Library and joined the Royal Army Medical Corps. He was transferred to France, where he was badly wounded on 8th August.

  • What Happy Museum Has Achieved Since Its Launch in 2011
    Happy Museum (HM) stimulates and supports museum practice that places wellbeing within an environmental and future-facing frame, rethinking museums’ role in creating more resilient people, places and planet. Through academic research, thought leadership, peer networking, advocacy, training and action, HM works directly with over 70 UK museums and impacted many more through events and an online presence which stretches globally. The Community of Practice’s vision for HM is of: A space to experiment with museum practice, through principles of care, inclusion and collaboration, in a critical time of change. What Happy Museum has achieved since its launch in 2011 Since 2011, and with investment from PHF, ACE, CyMAL and the Wales Federation of Museums, HM has: Funded creative interventions in 22 museumsi leading to individual development and organisational change (2011 - 14). Undertaken evaluation using the Story of Change taking learning from creative interventions and research to develop a set of common principles - see below. Created a suite of case studies, evaluation tools and resources for use by the wider sector with a re- launched website (happymuseum.org) to guide practitioners in How to Be a HM. In 2015 brought together 6 museumsii in an in-depth 5-year study into the impact of action research and peer learning on individual, organisational and community resilience. In 2017-8, recruited 17 Affiliateiii organisations to form an expanded Community of Practice, engaging c 200 participants from museum teams, volunteers, partners and communities with the HM principles, developing new practice and sharing learning through facilitated workshops and pairings. Held regular symposia bringing the Community of Practice alongside representatives from think tanks, NGOs and academia in fields such as energy, public health, economics, psychology and neuroscience.

  • First World War Commemorations in Wales: Planning for 2014- 2018
    Updated in July 2013 First World War Commemorations in Wales: Planning for 2014- 2018 Feedback from the 3 events held in January and February 2013 Contents 1. Introduction 2. Initial Stakeholder Planning Discussions 3. Roles of CyMAL: Museums, Archives and Libraries Wales and the Heritage Lottery Fund 4. The First World War Centenary Programme Board 5. The View beyond Wales 6. The Discussion Framework 1 Updated in July 2013 1. Introduction 1.1 The next few years will see a particular public focus on the commemoration of the First World War. This was a period of history that had an impact on every town, village and community across Wales with the loss of so many young men. Organisations throughout the nation are already considering how they can tell the stories of such a turbulent time. 1.2 The Welsh Government has instigated a stakeholder discussion on the planning process for First World War commemorations. The aim will be to reach as many individuals, groups, communities and organisations which have an interest in taking part in their own commemorations or working in partnership to develop joint activities. 1.3 Carwyn Jones AM, First Minister, has appointed Prof Sir Deian Hopkin to advise him and the Government on how Wales should prepare an appropriate and interesting framework of commemorative activities, exhibitions and events which will result in a lasting digital legacy for Wales. 2. Initial Stakeholder Planning Discussions 2.1 Three initial events were held in Cardiff on 22 January 2013, Llandudno Junction on 28 January 2013 and Builth Wells on 15 February 2013.

  • An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland
    AN UNINTENDED COMMUNITY IN THE WELSH HINTERLAND Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships David Frost 2 An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland - Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships Starting in the late 1970s, not long after I joined the urban exodus that saw significant inward migration to rural Wales, I kept a file of notes and observations on the situation and experiences of those around me who had moved to West Wales. Thirty years on, at the turn of the millennium, I made a summary and in this paper I discuss the main social trends that I identified at the time, adding additional and more recent material. Migration and social networks My earliest observation was that the migrants had come from many different, overwhelmingly urban, places and I pondered the reasons why they had moved to Wales; and whether, having assembled themselves in the hinterlands of Machynlleth, Aberystwyth, Tregaron, Aberaeron and Cardigan, they had become a community, albeit a loose-knit and spatially dispersed one. One reason for their migration seemed to be the persistence of the rural idyll, a romantic yearning for an idealised countryside, which I examined in my article for the Organic Grower Magazine, “Mud on the Tracks” (2016). Part of the rural idyll is the notion of community, and many writers have contrasted the community life of rural society with the supposedly atomised life of urban society. My search of the literature on rural communities led me to the conclusion however, that our 1970s migration to West Wales was a variant of what sociologists call intentional communities, which are also known as utopian communities.

  • Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991
    Ceredigion Welsh District Council Elections Results 1973-1991 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • Capel Soar-Y-Mynydd, Ceredigion
    Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion Richard Coates 2017 Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion The chapel known as Soar-y-mynydd or Soar y Mynydd lies near the eastern extremity of the large parish of Llanddewi Brefi, in the valley of the river Camddwr deep in the “Green Desert of Wales”, the Cambrian Mountains of Ceredigion (National Grid Reference SN 7847 5328). It is some eight miles south-east of Tregaron, or more by road. Its often-repeated claim to fame is that it is the remotest chapel in all Wales (“capel mwyaf pellennig/anghysbell Cymru gyfan”). Exactly how that is measured I am not sure, but it is certainly remote by anyone in Britain’s standards. It is approached on rough and narrow roads from the directions of Tregaron, Llanwrtyd Wells, and Llandovery. It is just east of the now vanished squatter settlement (tŷ unnos) called Brithdir (whose site is still named on the Ordnance Survey 6" map in 1980-1), and it has become progressively more remote as the local sheep-farms have been abandoned, most of them as a result of the bad winter of 1946-7. Its name means ‘Zoar of the mountain’ or ‘of the upland moor’. Zoar or its Welsh equivalent Soar is a not uncommon chapel name in Wales. It derives from the mention in Genesis 19:20-30 of a place with this name which served as a temporary sanctuary for Lot and his daughters and which was spared by God when Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. (“Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.

  • The Relationship Between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe
    The Relationship between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe Keith Haylock BSc Department of Geography and Earth Sciences Supervisors Professor John Grattan, Professor Henry Lamb and Dr Toby Driver Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the award of degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Aberystwyth University 2015 0 Abstract This thesis presents geochemical records of metalliferous enrichment of soils and isotope analysis of metal finds at Iron Age and Romano-British period settlements in North Ceredigion, Mid Wales, UK. The research sets out to explore whether North Ceredigion’s Iron Age sites had similar metal-production functions to other sites along the Atlantic fringe. Six sites were surveyed using portable x-ray fluorescence (pXRF), a previously unused method in the archaeology of Mid Wales. Also tested was the pXRF (Niton XLt700 pXRF) with regard to how environmentally driven matrix effects may alter its in situ analyses results. Portable x-ray fluorescence was further used to analyse testing a range of certified reference materials (CRM) and site samples to assess target elements (Pb, Cu, Zn and Fe) for comparative accuracy and precision against Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for both in situ and laboratory sampling. At Castell Grogwynion, one of the Iron Age sites surveyed recorded > 20 times Pb enrichment compared to back ground values of 110 ppm. Further geophysical surveys confirmed that high dipolar signals correlated to the pXRF Pb hotspots were similar to other known Iron Age and Roman period smelting sites, but the subsequent excavation only unearthed broken pottery and other waste midden development.

    ABERYSTWYTH DIGITAL HERITAGE WALK The Women’s Heritage Walk has been developed as part of the Women’s Archive of Wales ‘Century of Hope Project’, funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The project marks the centenary of some women getting the right to vote in parliamentary elections, and this walk draws attention to some of the remarkable women who have lived in Aberystwyth during the last two hundred years, and to the man who contributed powerfully to the campaign for the vote.
