Source pack group 1. Monument found on the A4069 between Llangadog and Brynamman on the Black Mountain. Workers used horse and cart to transport heavy loads. Travellers on the A4069 journeying over the Black Mountain between Llangadog and Brynamman may have noticed a roadside monument commemorating the death of David Davies of Gwynfe. The monument stands in a fascinating and strikingly beautiful landscape of limestone quarries and lime kilns within the Brecon Beacons National Park. (Dyfed Archaeological Trust) Source pack 2 At an average of 2mph it would take a horse with a cart 30 minutes to travel one mile. A five mile journey would take 2½ hours. www.ultimatehorsesite.com Advert for Lime from the Carmarthen Journal An abandoned lime kiln on the Black Mountain Many local smallholders and cottagers would have full time employment at the quarries and this would entail walking to and from work each day. Some however who lived further away would have to walk for many miles to the quarry on a Sunday night in readiness for an early Monday morning start and return home the following Friday in the late afternoon. They would take enough food with them for the week and their provisions would include home reared ham and bacon, eggs, bread, tea and vegetables. Mr Tom Williams of Myddfai Source pack 3 Llangadock Fatal accident – As Mr D Davies, Junior, of Glynclawdd Gwynfe, was driving an empty gambo on the Black Mountain on Wednesday afternoon, the horses became startled and dashed off. The unfortunate young man was thrown out, and though assistance was at once forthcoming he expired without a word. Much sympathy is felt for the family of the deceased, who is generally respected in the neighbourhood. The Welshman 23rd May 1884 Page 5 An abandoned lime kiln on the Black Mountain A draw kiln used to burn limestone. Once burnt it is used in agriculture to help neutralise acidic soil When limestone (calcium carbonate) (CaCO3) is heated Carbon dioxide (CO2) is driven off leaving calcium oxide (CaO) which is also known as quicklime. CaCO3 = CaO + CO2 Quicklime is chemically unstable and caustic meaning it can burn organic material like skin. www.calch.org.uk .

Sustainability Appraisal Report of the Deposit LDP November 2019
Carmarthenshire Revised Local Development Plan (LDP) Sustainability Appraisal Report of the Deposit LDP November 2019 1. Introduction This document is the Sustainability Appraisal (SA) Report, consisting of the joint Sustainability Appraisal (SA) and Strategic Environmental Assessment (SEA), of Carmarthenshire Council’s Deposit Revised Local Development Plan (rLDP).The SA/SEA is a combined process which meets both the regulatory requirements for SEA and SA. The revised Carmarthenshire Local Development Plan is a land use plan which outlines the location and quantity of development within Carmarthenshire for a 15 year period. The purpose of the SA is to identify any likely significant economic, environmental and social effects of the LDP, and to suggest relevant mitigation measures. This process integrates sustainability considerations into all stages of LDP preparation, and promotes sustainable development. This fosters a more inclusive and transparent process of producing a LDP, and helps to ensure that the LDP is integrated with other policies. This combined process is hereafter referred to as the SA. This Report accompanies, and should be read in conjunction with, the Deposit LDP. The geographical scope of this assessment covers the whole of the County of Carmarthenshire, however also considers cross-boundary effects with the neighbouring local authorities of Pembrokeshire, Ceredigion and Swansea. The LDP is intended to apply until 2033 following its publication. This timescale has been reflected in the SA. 1.1 Legislative Requirements The completion of an SA is a statutory requirement for Local Development Plans under Section 62(6) of the Planning and Compulsory Purchase Act 20041, the Town and Country Planning (LDP) (Wales) Regulations 20052 and associated guidance.
