  • Integrated Upper Ordovician Graptolite–Chitinozoan Biostratigraphy of the Cardigan and Whitland Areas, Southwest Wales
    Geol.

A. VANDENBROUCKE∗†, MARK WILLIAMS‡, JAN A. ZALASIEWICZ‡, JEREMY R. DAVIES§ & RICHARD A. WATERS¶ ∗Research Unit Palaeontology, Ghent University, Krijgslaan 281/S8, 9000 Ghent, Belgium ‡Department of Geology, University of Leicester, University Road, Leicester LE1 7RH, UK §British Geological Survey, Kingsley Dunham Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham NG12 5GG, UK ¶Department of Geology, National Museum of Wales, Cathays Park, Cardiff CF10 3NP, UK (Received 26 January 2007; accepted 26 June 2007) Abstract – To help calibrate the emerging Upper Ordovician chitinozoan biozonation with the graptolite biozonation in the Anglo-Welsh, historical type basin, the graptolite-bearing Caradoc– Ashgill successions between Fishguard and Cardigan, and at Whitland, SW Wales, have been collected for chitinozoans. In the Cardigan district, finds of Armoricochitina reticulifera within strata referred to the clingani graptolite Biozone (morrisi Subzone), together with accessory species, indicate the Fungochitina spinifera chitinozoan Biozone, known from several Ordovician sections in northern England that span the base of the Ashgill Series. Tanuchitina ?bergstroemi, eponymous of the succeeding chitinozoan biozone, has tentatively been recovered from strata of Pleurograptus linearis graptolite Biozone age in the Cardigan area. The T. ?bergstroemi Biozone can also be correlated with the type Ashgill Series of northern England. Chitinozoans suggest that the widespread Welsh Basin anoxic–oxic transition at the base of the Nantmel Mudstones Formation in Wales, traditionally equated with the Caradoc–Ashgill boundary, is of Cautleyan (or younger Ashgill) age in the Cardigan area.

  • THE NEWS of DINAS 1894 – 1900 Transcribed from the COUNTY ECHO
    THE NEWS OF DINAS 1894 – 1900 transcribed from THE COUNTY ECHO DINAS HISTORY SERIES his book is a transcription of all the Dinas news items from The County Echo, a Fishguard-based newspaper, for the years 1894, Twhen the newspaper commenced publication, to 1900 inclusive. The content is remarkable for its comprehensive coverage of village life. The correspondent(s), perhaps unwittingly, produced a social history of Dinas in the last seven years of the nineteenth century, one which almost reads, without editorial help, as a connected narrative. A picture emerges of a lively, sometimes controversial, but confident community in the far-south-western fringe of Wales at the very end of the Victorian era. The way of life recorded is both rural and truly parochial, but always tempered with the globe-trotting adventures and tragedies of the many sailors and master mariners from the village. This was still the age of the horse and cart, with bicycles being a novelty. Chapel and church life, along with deferential accounts of the clergy involved, inevitably take a prominent part in the narrative as do the fulsome accounts of funerals and tragedies; however, social innovation in the form of a Regatta in 1899 is proudly recorded. The Temperance Movement, so vitally important at the turn of the century, is faithfully described in its manifestations from hayfield to chapel. The text is presented without editing or alteration, variable spellings and local usage being preserved; where some doubt exists over the original, then the editorial convention of square brackets is used. Only one comment is made and that to explain a deliberate policy of concealment by the correspondent.

It spans a total area of 1650 square kilometres and in 2001 had a total population of 114,138 (Census data). The County has a population density of 71 people per square kilometre (about half of the Welsh average), demonstrating its primarily rural nature. Pembrokeshires physical landscape can generally be described as low lying, with some upland areas surrounding the Preseli Hills. The County is surrounded on three sides by the sea and this, together with the geological history, glacial history, and human history of the County have greatly influenced the landscape both physically and culturally. In terms of cultural assets Pembrokeshire (excluding the National Park) has 1632 listed buildings, 236 Scheduled Ancient Monuments, 20 Historic Parks 2 and Gardens, 24 Conservation Areas, 2 country parks and 8.64km of village green and common land. Furthermore the area is both internationally and nationally important for a large range of habitats, including river, marine, lowland heaths and semi-natural oak woodland and some coastal and estuarine areas, with 3.4% of the land area being formally designated for its biodiversity value.

  • Background Paper 1 Landscape, Seascape, Tranquillity and Dark Skies
    Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Management Plan (2020-2024) Background Paper 1 Landscape, seascape, tranquillity and dark skies Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority September 2018 1 About the UK’s national parks The purposes of UK National Park are set out in the Environment Act 1995. They are: (a) conserving and enhancing the natural beauty, wildlife and cultural heritage of the area (b) promoting opportunities for the understanding and enjoyment of the special qualities of those areas by the public In the event of an irreconcilable conflict between the purposes, conservation has greater weight (the ‘Sandford principle’). Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority is charged with delivering the purposes in Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and has a duty to seek to foster the social and economic wellbeing of National Park communities in its pursuit of the purposes. Management Plan 2020-2024 Each National Park Authority is required to prepare a five-yearly National Park Management Plan "which formulates its policy for the management of the relevant Park and for the carrying out of its functions in relation to that Park" (Environment Act 1995, section 66). The Environment Act 1995 gives relevant authorities a legal duty to have regard to Park purposes and to the Sandford Principle1. A number of background papers have been compiled in preparation for the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Management Plan 2020-2024. They cover: 1. Landscape, seascape, tranquillity and dark skies 2. Well-being, equality and livelihoods 3. Outdoor recreation and learning 4. Nature conservation 5. Culture and heritage 6. Climate and energy 7. Natural resources 8. Legislation and policy The Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015 and The Environment (Wales) Act 2016 add further statutory backing to National Park purposes and the need for participation and collaboration to achieve them.
