ROWIP Questionnaire Results.Pdf
Brecon Beacons National Park Authority Review of the Rights of Way Improvement Plan Questionnaire Results Background to the questionnaire In June 2007 the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority published its Rights of Way Improvement Plan (“ROWIP”). The ROWIP was the means by which the Authority identified, prioritised and planned for improvements to the rights of way network and access provision in the National Park for the subsequent 10 years. The ROWIP set out the priorities and objectives for access to the countryside and provided the basis for work on the rights of way network and on access land. The National Park Authority is now reviewing the ROWIP. The background to the ROWIP is contained in the separate “Assessments” document. As part of the review the Authority must undertake various assessments and to help with that process a questionnaire was devised to gather data from members of the public. Twenty four questions were used, as well as a few questions about the individuals completing the survey. The questionnaire was placed on the Authority’s website in both English and Welsh and a link to it was emailed to nearly 450 individuals and organisations which the Authority had already contacted about the review of the ROWIP. Hard copies could be requested also. The questionnaire was promoted in the local press and on social media several times during the period that it was on the website. A copy of the questionnaire is shown at Annex 1. Report Format This report will set out each question in turn and will display the responses diagrammatically.

The Relationship Between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe
The Relationship between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe Keith Haylock BSc Department of Geography and Earth Sciences Supervisors Professor John Grattan, Professor Henry Lamb and Dr Toby Driver Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the award of degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Aberystwyth University 2015 0 Abstract This thesis presents geochemical records of metalliferous enrichment of soils and isotope analysis of metal finds at Iron Age and Romano-British period settlements in North Ceredigion, Mid Wales, UK. The research sets out to explore whether North Ceredigion’s Iron Age sites had similar metal-production functions to other sites along the Atlantic fringe. Six sites were surveyed using portable x-ray fluorescence (pXRF), a previously unused method in the archaeology of Mid Wales. Also tested was the pXRF (Niton XLt700 pXRF) with regard to how environmentally driven matrix effects may alter its in situ analyses results. Portable x-ray fluorescence was further used to analyse testing a range of certified reference materials (CRM) and site samples to assess target elements (Pb, Cu, Zn and Fe) for comparative accuracy and precision against Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for both in situ and laboratory sampling. At Castell Grogwynion, one of the Iron Age sites surveyed recorded > 20 times Pb enrichment compared to back ground values of 110 ppm. Further geophysical surveys confirmed that high dipolar signals correlated to the pXRF Pb hotspots were similar to other known Iron Age and Roman period smelting sites, but the subsequent excavation only unearthed broken pottery and other waste midden development.

A Long Walk to Berwick
A long walk to Berwick The Great Outdoors magazine, November 2016 I’d been a long time getting to Berwick: you could reckon it in hours, years or decades, depending where you started from. Hours: eight. That wasn’t bad for 23 miles from Wooler. Years: ten, since I’d set out from Land’s End with a vague plan, to walk 800 miles across England, a bit at a time. Decades: six and a bit. I never before had found the excuse to walk through Berwick-upon-Tweed, though I’d shot past it on the train often enough, and it seemed a nice sort of place to go to, with its border history, estuary location and recently-ended war with Russia. The vagueness of my plan to cross England was very much the point. That unholy trinity of work, family and finance meant that opportunities to get into the great outdoors from my London home were all too limited, essentially just one short break a year, everything else just local lowland walking. I’d got frustrated with cherry-picking different bits of the nation each year – the North Devon Coast one time, the Black Mountains another, say. I was the sort of guy who needed a plan, one that involved a nice B&B at the end of the day. I didn’t do spartan. And that plan, before England, was Wales, starting 2002. I’d walked Offa’s Dyke Path a few years before, and it came to me that finding and walking a different, wilder, hillier line across that grand little nation might be fun.
