OSWALD ROAD, OSWESTRY, 1878. PREFACE F all the works which have been written relating to the general or family history O of North Wales, none have been for centuries more esteemed than the History of the Gwydir Family. The Hon. Daines Barrington, in his preface to his first edition of the work, published in 1770, has well said, "The MS. hath, for above.a cent~ry, been so prized in North Wales, that many in those parts have thought it worth while to make fair and complete transcripts of it." Of these transcripts the earliest known to exist is one in the Library at Brogyntyn. It was probably written within 45 years of the death of the author; but besides that, it contains a great number of notes and additions of nearly the same date, which have never yet appeared in print. The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first editiun, edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. The second was published in Mr.

Snowdonia was designated a National Park because of its natural beauty. The Park Authority is responsible for safeguarding and promoting enjoyment and understanding of the Park‟s special qualities. Today, the Park is under increasing pressure. Every year, because of its renown, millions of people come to enjoy Snowdonia‟s coast, hills, rivers, lakes, wildlife and its special cultural heritage. Remember, when you come to Snowdonia, support the local businesses, recycle your waste, and use public transport whenever possible. In this issue of Snowdonia we provide information on how to enjoy Snowdonia healthily and safely. We provide information about a circular walk in the Bala and Ardudwy areas, and an accessible path in Betws y Coed. You will also be given a snapshot of the Ffestiniog area, and read about the history and heritage of Blaenau Ffestiniog. In this issue we have information on how to care for wildlife, and become more familiar with Snowdonia by attending a course at Plas Tan y Bwlch.

  • 7.0 Tranquility and Low Pollution
    7.0 TRANQUILITY AND LOW POLLUTION The overall area of “undisturbed”* land in the AONB has decreased since 1997, from 85% to 71%. Traffic has increased on the A499 since 1997 with related Environmental side-effects. Many structures (masts and wind turbines) have recently been erected. Many street lights have been replaced with LED in 2016/17 * Countryside usually free of any substantial disturbance in daytime 7.1 Introduction 7.1.1 Tranquillity is a characteristic which is recognised and appreciated more and more in these busy and often hectic times. It is a phenomenon not easily measured but can be said to be a combination of factors including low levels of noise from industry and vehicles, limited traffic movement and other intrusions and low levels of lighting to disturb the night's dark skies. It is therefore a combination of many factors which creates an atmosphere of tranquillity and areas with high levels of tranquillity are relatively rare throughout the UK although there are significant areas in Scotland. 7.1.2 Tranquillity and a peaceful atmosphere were recognised as one of Llŷn AONB’s special qualities during the preparation of the original Management Plan in 2004/5. The area’s rurality and remote nature is partly responsible for this and has meant that there are no significant industrial or infrastructural developments and only low levels of intrusion by traffic and machinery. Also, the area’s population is relatively low – around 6,000 – considering the surface area. 7.1.3 As well as being an area with high levels of tranquillity, the environmental quality of the soil, air, water and sea water in Llŷn is generally high, with low levels of pollution.

    HCS103 National Assembly for Wales Communities, Equality and Local Government Committee Holiday Caravan Sites (Wales) Bill Response from: Llanengan Community Council CYNGOR CYMUNED LLANENGAN Clerc – Einir Wyn – Clerk Fferm Cae Du, Aber-soch, PWLLHELI, Gwynedd. LL53 7HT Ffôn: (01758) 712434 – tŷ/712707 – peiriant ateb E-bost: [email protected] 20 May 2014 Clerk, Communities, Equality and Local Government Committee, Welsh Assembly Government, CARDIFF BAY. CF99 1NA Dear Sir/Madam, Consultation on the Holiday Caravan Sites (Wales) Bill I write on behalf of the above Council to express the following comments: It opposes requests from any permanent caravan site in this Community to amend a Condition in its Planning Permission in order for it to be used for holidays throughout the year as this would set a precedent for other sites (a total of approximately two thousand caravans in this community). Concern is expressed that this would open the floodgates for the caravans to be used as permanent homes and the effect on the Welsh language and the native Welsh society. It would also place additional strain on services, especially health and care at a time when they are already facing financial cuts. Additionally, Local Authorities have no means of monitoring them. The Council is in favour of ending the practice of using holiday caravans as permanent residential homes by making it a requirement for their owners and long term occupiers to show that their main residence is elsewhere and giving local authorities the power to deal with caravan occupiers who fail this test. I trust that you will consider the above comments.
