  • Visit to Coedarhdyglyn, St George-Super-Ely, CF5 6SF on Friday 12Th October at 2Pm
    YMDDIRIEDOLAETH GERDDI HANESYDDOL CYMRU WELSH HISTORIC GARDENS TRUST South and Mid Glamorgan Branch Visit to Coedarhdyglyn, St George-super-Ely, CF5 6SF on Friday 12th October at 2pm At the kind invitation of Rhodri Traherne our Branch will be visiting Coedarhydyglyn. a Grade II* garden is not open to the public, so this will be a rare opportunity to explore the gardens and wider parkland landscape. The house, which was commissioned by the Revd. John Montgomery Traherne in 1820, stands on the side of a deep valley in the centre of parkland and commands extensive views to the north. House and parkland together form a picturesque early C19th landscape. The topography of the site has largely determined the content of the grounds with woodland predominating. Terraced gardens immediately around the house are laid mainly to lawns. The Dell, a narrow spring fed valley to the south of the house, was developed as a woodland and water garden with strong Japanese influence by Llewellyn Edmund Traherne early in the C20th and is thought to have been the work of Alfred Parsons & Partners. The woodlands contain some notable plantings of rhododendrons and conifers, many of them planted by the present owner’s uncle Sir Cennydd Traherne and his wife Rowena who established the Cyprus garden and the Pinetum. The Pinetum is a special interest of our host who will accompany us on our tour. The entrance to Coedarhdyglyn is about ½ mile from Culverhouse Cross roundabout. Take to A48 to St Nicolas and, at the top of the hill, turn tight into a private driveway.

    FONMON CASTLE Ref number PGW (Gm) 39 (GLA) OS Map 170 Grid ref ST 047 680 Former county South Glamorgan Unitary authority The Vale of Glamorgan Community council Penmark Designations Listed buildings: Fonmon Castle Grade I; Stables Grade II; Watch tower Grade II Site evaluation Grade II Primary reasons for grading Walled, terraced and informal gardens form an attractive setting for this ancient castle, continually occupied since the mediaeval period. The grounds incorporate an interesting small keep which was once set in its own garden. Type of site Formal and informal gardens and grounds Main phases of construction 1656-74; c. 1762; 1840-78 Site description Fonmon Castle is a substantial mansion situated on the western lip of a steep ravine below the gardens and castle in which the Fonmon Brook runs northwards to join the Kenson river. Castellation, rendering and Georgian sash windows give the castle a uniform appearance, but in fact they mask several building phases, from the mediaeval period onwards. The house, which is two- and three-storey and rendered, is orientated north- south, with a small entrance court, open to the west, at the south end of the west side. Much of the south end is covered in Virginia creeper. The earliest part of the building is a rectangular early twelfth-century keep, which lies along the north side of the court, orientated east-west. The west end of this three-storey block is blank except for a large Venetian window with a flight of steps to the north up to a platform in front of it.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Planning Policy Wales [PPW] (Fourth edition, 2011) requires Local Development Plans [LDPs] sustainable settlement strategies to be informed by an assessment of settlements to ensure they accord with the sustainable location principles contained within national planning policy (see PPW Section 4.6 Sustainable settlement strategy: locating new development). 1.2 As part of the evidence base for the Vale of Glamorgan LDP, the Council has undertaken an audit of services and facilities within the Vale of Glamorgan’s settlements in order to identify those which are potentially suitable to accommodate additional development in terms of their location, role and function. This assessment therefore forms part of the evidence base for the Vale of Glamorgan LDP Settlement Hierarchy by identifying broad groupings of settlements with similar roles and functions based upon the following research objectives: Objective 1: To assess the need for residents to commute beyond their settlement to access key employment, retail and community facilities (including education and health). Objective 2: To measure the general level of accessibility of settlements by sustainable transport.
