Email A Friend Wed Dec 31 09:23:29 2008 John Murphy, Winsford, Cheshire I was 4 years old at the time of the fire, my mother and I related bbc.co.uk links were living with Uncle Hugh and Auntie Gertie in a tiny Gwenda Parry profile cottage at the base of the stone bridge support on the Anglesey side shore. Uncle Hugh was a foreman in charge of related www links the gangs who worked on the lines along the North Wales Menai bridges' history coast so the cottage was probably owned by British Rail. Britannia Bridge archive Project Menai My memory of that night is being carried out of the cottage by a fireman, unfortunately I can't remember anything else.

Mon Sep 8 10:05:12 2008 Daphne Davidson from Aberdeen I used to live in Holyhead and my daughter was born in Ysbyty Dewi Sant, Bangor. I often look at the Menai and Britannia bridges on the net as they hold happy memories for me. I remember the night in 1970 when the Britannia bridge was destroyed by fire. It is with gratitude and thanks to the scores of workers who reconstructed the historic bridge that they kept the original towers and lions. It is super now with the A55 trunk road above the railway. I am looking forward to my next holiday in Wales. Mon Jun 23 10:03:50 2008 Daphne McLean from Aberdeen I was staying with my cousin in Holyhead in 1970. We heard the sirens of the convoy of fire engines which raced to the scene over 20 miles away. We later heard on the news that the Brittania Bridge was on fire. We took a walk uo the hill out towards South Stack road, where the glow of the fire lit up the night sky. It was sad to think that a piece of history of Wales was gone for good. Masses of workmen rebuilt the bridge and made a road over the top of the railway, all that remains from the original are the massive concrete pillars and the lions. Mon Nov 19 10:50:39 2007 Liz Matthews, Ludlow, Shropshire I can remember going home back to Shropshire after staying in the family cottage at Menai Bridge and seeing the Britannia Bridge glowing with flames. I can remember it as if it was yesterday and I was only 11 then. Thu Oct 4 15:33:20 2007 John Bakewell from Valley, Anglesey At the time I was Chief Officer on "Cambria" in Holyhead harbour. We could see the glow in the sky of the Bridge burning over 20 miles away. Two boys were the culprits. They had lit a piece of paper in order to see birds in the tunnel. The lit paper then fell on pitch which immediately caught fire. They were not prosecuted as it was deemed to be an accident. The Mail Ships "Cambria" and "Hibernia" were taken off the Holyhead / Dun Laoghaire service and transferred to the Heysham / Dun Laoghaire service. This lasted for about two years. Passengers from the mainland to Holyhead had to leave the train at Bangor and a coach took them to LlanfairPG where they boarded another train. Fortunately some rolling stock had been left on Anglesey. Thu Dec 14 09:57:30 2006.

    Anglesey & Gwynedd Joint Local Joint Development Plan 2016-2026 Item:- Deposit Plan Part 2 - Maps Ref ID 1824 - Page 111 - Map 118 - Bryn Du Re - Planning Approval for 12 Affordable Houses granted 2014 although part of the JLDP 2016-2026. ==================================================================== My previous statements on this item remains true and accurate. This comment indicates the degree of serious unsoundness that exists in the existing presented JLDP and the inadequate considerations given to the provision and location of Affordable Housing in Anglesey, and the serious consequences of locating Affordable Housing which do not have the benefit of adequate services and facilities. I stated in my earlier submission that the Anglesey County Council, (ACC), and the JLDP provide guidance on the location of Affordable Housing and state that they should be located in settlements where there are public facilities to support them. Grossly contrary to this guidance Bryn Du is a substantial linear village about 1 km long, and estimated to be of over 100 dwellings, between Llanfaelog Church and Ty Croes Train Station -(which provides a limited, almost virtual service which renders it unfit for purpose). The press statement issued by the Group Cynefin Housing Association and Anglesey County Council Housing Department on 26 May 2015 at the start of construction of the 12 Affordable Houses allocated to Bryn Du indicates how remote these organisations are from their own Council Guidance and the realms of reality:- “Grŵp Cynefin are working in partnership with Anglesey Council’s housing services to develop four small-scale sites in Bryngwran, Bodedern, Holyhead and Llanfaelog. The four developments were announced during a visit to one of the sites, the Bryn Du development in Llanfaelog, which consists of six homes (3 bedroom) and six smaller homes (2 bedroom).
