  • 17Th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We Offer Short & Long Walks All Year Around and Welcome New Walkers to Try a Walk with U
    17th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Table Mountain with view of Sugar Loaf v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Evening walks: These are about 2-3 miles and we normally provide these in the summer. Monday Short walks: We also provide occasional 2-3 mile daytime walks as an introduction to walking, usually on a Monday. Saturday walks: We have a Saturday walk every week that is no more than 6 miles in length and these are a great way to begin exploring the countryside. Occasionally, in addition to the shorter walk, we may also provide a longer walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice.

  • Note on CEC Walking Weekend in Gower Peninsular 7Th/8Th June 2019
    Note on CEC Walking Weekend in Gower Peninsular 7th/8th June 2019 On Friday evening we met Geoff Haden at the Dragon Hotel for a guided walk led by Stephen K. Jones. The route included places of engineering interest, taking in: - Brunel’s South Wales Railway, the docks and the site of the Swansea & Neath line opening bridge over the River Tawe, plaqued by ICE Wales Cymru, and the site of Weavers Mill. It passed many places that Dylan Thomas mentions in his radio broadcast Return Journey, when he returned after the war to see the destruction of the whole of the centre of Swansea. Key places - Swansea Castle which looks down on the area of Swansea rebuilt after the war. Wind Street - once the commercial area but now clubs and bars. Halfway down on right is the No Sign Bar - a Dylan haunt. We went down Princess Way passing the Cross Keys - claimed to be the oldest pub in Wales but bombed during war so not much original remains. Opposite is St Mary's Church also bombed in the war. Swansea Museum, which Dylan said was “...a museum that should be in a museum...". The Exchange Buildings where in the mid-1800s the world price of copper was set. Opposite is the Queens Hotel - another surviving pub in the Georgian part of Swansea. Ahead was the Pumphouse and Dylan Thomas Square on the right. In the square is the Dylan Thomas Theatre where Dylan was once a member, a Mumbles Railway exhibition (the oldest passenger railway in the world) and the Maritime Museum housed partly in the engine sheds of Victoria Station.

  • Swansea Council Section 6 Biodiversity Duty Monitoring Report to Welsh Government December 2019
    Swansea Council Section 6 Biodiversity Duty Monitoring Report to Welsh Government December 2019 A. Introduction 1. Since 2015, Swansea Council (together with all other public bodies) has been given increased responsibilities and legal duties to maintain and enhance the natural environment and biodiversity as a result of the following: The Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015, Resilient Wales Goal: ‘A nation which maintains and enhances a biodiverse natural environment with healthy functioning ecosystems that support social, economic and ecological resilience and the capacity to adapt to change (for example climate change)’ The Environment (Wales) Act 2016 (Part 1) Section 6 Biodiversity and Resilience of Ecosystems Duty which requires that : ‘A public authority must seek to maintain and enhance biodiversity in the exercise of functions in relation to Wales, and in so doing promote the resilience of ecosystems, so far as consistent with the proper exercise of those functions’ 2. In complying with the Section 6 Biodiversity Duty, the Council is required to prepare and submit to Welsh Government by the end of 2019 (and then every three years after this date) a report (Section 6 monitoring Report) outlining what it has done to comply with the Biodiversity Duty. 3. Since the Environment (Wales) Act 2016 came into force much work has been undertaken by the Council at both a strategic and operational level to maintain and enhance biodiversity and the resilience of ecosystems. 4.

    National Landscape Character 31/03/2014 NLCA39 GOWER © Crown copyright and database rights 2013 Ordnance Survey 100019741 Penrhyn G ŵyr – Disgrifiad cryno Mae Penrhyn G ŵyr yn ymestyn i’r môr o ymyl gorllewinol ardal drefol ehangach Abertawe. Golyga ei ddaeareg fod ynddo amrywiaeth ysblennydd o olygfeydd o fewn ardal gymharol fechan, o olygfeydd carreg galch Pen Pyrrod, Three Cliffs Bay ac Oxwich Bay yng nglannau’r de i halwyndiroedd a thwyni tywod y gogledd. Mae trumiau tywodfaen yn nodweddu asgwrn cefn y penrhyn, gan gynnwys y man uchaf, Cefn Bryn: a cheir yno diroedd comin eang. Canlyniad y golygfeydd eithriadol a’r traethau tywodlyd, euraidd wrth droed y clogwyni yw bod yr ardal yn denu ymwelwyr yn eu miloedd. Gall y priffyrdd fod yn brysur, wrth i bobl heidio at y traethau mwyaf golygfaol. Mae pwysau twristiaeth wedi newid y cymeriad diwylliannol. Dyma’r AHNE gyntaf a ddynodwyd yn y Deyrnas Unedig ym 1956, ac y mae’r glannau wedi’u dynodi’n Arfordir Treftadaeth, hefyd. www.naturalresources.wales NLCA39 Gower - Page 1 of 11 Erys yr ardal yn un wledig iawn. Mae’r trumiau’n ffurfio cyfres o rostiroedd uchel, graddol, agored. Rheng y bryniau ceir tirwedd amaethyddol gymysg, yn amrywio o borfeydd bychain â gwrychoedd uchel i gaeau mwy, agored. Yn rhai mannau mae’r hen batrymau caeau lleiniog yn parhau, gyda thirwedd “Vile” Rhosili yn oroesiad eithriadol. Ar lannau mwy agored y gorllewin, ac ar dir uwch, mae traddodiad cloddiau pridd a charreg yn parhau, sy’n nodweddiadol o ardaloedd lle bo coed yn brin. Nodwedd hynod yw’r gyfres o ddyffrynnoedd bychain, serth, sy’n aml yn goediog, sydd â’u nentydd yn aberu ar hyd glannau’r de.

Introduction Overview As part of the Active Travel (Wales) Act 2013, the law which aims to make it easier for people to walk and cycle in Wales, local authorities are required to map their existing routes and illustrate where improvements and new routes can be added as part of the Integrated Network Map (INM) stage. The purpose of the consultation exercises summarised in this report are to help identify where the public would like improvements to be made and new routes added, giving them the opportunity to voice their opinions and get involved in shaping the City and County of Swansea (CCoS) future active travel provision. To develop an understanding of the walking and cycling behaviours of the residents throughout Swansea, and to convey their opinion on the existing routes, extensive consultation exercises were undertaken, including: ? Community engagement events in Swansea, Clydach and Gorseinon in June and July 2017; ? An online survey that was live from midday Friday June 16th 2017 and Friday 8th September 2017, a total of 12 weeks; and ? Secondary school consultation exercises and two primary school workshops with Sustrans in July 2017.
