    Cefn Viaduct.Pdf

    The Cefn Viaduct Cefn Mawr Viaduct The Chester and Shrewsbury railway runs at the eastern end of the Vale of Llangollen, beyond the parish boundary, passing through Cefn Mawr on route from Chester to Shrewsbury. It is carried over the River Dee by a stupendous viaduct, half a mile down stream from the Pontcysyllte Aqueduct. It measures one thousand five hundred and eight feet in length, and stands one hundred and forty-seven feet above the level of the river. The structure is supported by nineteen arches with sixty foot spans. In 1845 rival schemes were put forward for railway lines to join Chester with Shrewsbury. Promoters of the plan to link Shrewsbury to Chester via Ruabon had to work quickly to get their scheme moving. Instructions for the notices and plans were only given on the 7th November and they had to be deposited with the clerk of Peace by the 30th November 1845. Hostility from objecting landowners meant that Robertson had to survey the land by night. One irate squire expressed a wish that someone would 'throw Robertson and his theodolite into the canal'. Henry Robertson told a Parliamentary Committee of the advantage of providing a railway line that would open up coalfields of Ruabon and Wrexham to markets at Chester, Birkenhead and Liverpool in the north and to Shrewsbury and other Shropshire towns on the south side. The Parliamentary Committee agreed with him and the bill received Royal Assent on 30th June 1845. The Shrewsbury and Chester Railway Company made good progress with construction work and the line to Ruabon from the north was opened in November 1846.

This framework will also be applicable once the emerging Wrexham Local Development Plan (LDP) has been adopted (known as the Air Products site in the emerging LDP). 1.2 The Brief will help to inform any future development proposals and will begin to explore design parameters which can be used to provide a bespoke masterplan for the site. An appropriate development response will be of great benefit to the wider area and future generations. In order to ensure this is achieved the following overarching Vision has been developed: “This site, at the heart of Acrefair, shall be a key location and catalyst for the wider renewal of the Village and surrounding area. It shall utilise the existing qualities of the site and exploit the growing leisure and cultural interest in the Llangollen Valley, being a Gateway and springboard into the Dee valley and beyond to Snowdonia. The site shall provide opportunities for leisure, recreation, active sports, play, retailing, jobs and a choice of housing and shall be an integral part of the village, seamlessly sitting within the landscape and townscape and providing a positive contribution towards the whole area.” 1.3 The Brief includes: - detailed contextual and technical information about the site and surrounding environment; - guidance on the design submission requirements: and - sets out the requirements of the developer/landowner in terms of their response to the Brief.

    Country Walks Around Wrexham Route 6 – RHOSLLANERCHRUGOG Mountain Reservoirs (5½ miles / 3 hours) Rhos – Ty Mawr – Esclusham Mountain – Bronwylfa – Rhos This route may be linked to CWAW 3 to create a 9 mile walk. This walk is a gentle climb up to Esclusham Mountain passing Ty-Mawr and Cae- llwyd reservoirs and includes a short section of moorland. It begins at the Sun Inn, Hall Street, Rhosllanerchrugog (grid ref. 289468). Cars: Plenty of parking space is available nearby. Buses: There are regular bus services from Wrexham, travel information: 01978 266166. Please ensure that your dog does not stray from the footpaths. Keep it on a lead in fields with sheep and on the open mountain where the grouse are easily disturbed. The route is not suitable for wheelchairs, buggies or small children. WALK DIRECTIONS ARE IN BOLD TYPE Starting from the Sun Inn, Rhos, follow Hall Lane for a short distance away from the village, to Park Lodge with its stone relief depicting the sun. The emblem is believed to be part of the Jones family crest, owners of Llanerchrugog Hall in the late 18th century. The building was originally part of the Llanerchrugog Estate and a tree-lined driveway to the Hall ran from here though the estate parkland. Retrace your steps for a few metres to take the path through a long narrow open space, this was once a Great Western Railway line linking Rhos with Wrexham. In 1893 a group of Rhos businessmen formed a consortium to run their own railway to connect the village with Wrexham.
