Forms Appendix B Scanning Sources Appendix C Target Addresses Appendix D Graph's Appendix E Sample P.O.P. Package North Wales Police ( UK ) Gwynedd Division Profile of the Division The mountainous heartland of Wales, and of the County of Gwynedd in particular has long been recognised as being of special significance because of its spectacular scenery and cultural traditions. Its dramatic beauty, however, is not - and has not been for many generations - completely natural, but is rather a blend of the forces of nature and the hand of man, both of which continue to shape its development. It is an area steeped in great history, but nevertheless subject of national contemporary socio-economic pressures, and the effects of a vibrant tourist industry. Gwynedd covers by far the largest geographical area (629,000 acres) of the six Unitary Authorities in North Wales, and it extends from the City of Bangor in the North to the Dovey Bridge near Machynlleth in the South, and from Aberdaron near the tip of the Lleyn Peninsula in the west to Abergwyngregyn in the East. (The Gwynedd Police Divisional boundary is coterminous with the limits of the Gwynedd Council Unitary Authority area). Gwynedd's neighbouring Unitary Authorities (and Police Divisions) are Anglesey to the North, and Conwy and Denbighshire to the East, whilst its Southern and South Eastern borders mark the boundary between the North Wales and Dyfed-Powys Police areas.

  • Marine Character Areas MCA 14 TREMADOG BAY & DWYRYD
    Marine Character Areas MCA 14 TREMADOG BAY & DWYRYD ESTUARY Location and boundaries This Marine Character Area (MCA) encompasses the shallow waters of Tremadog Bay, nestled between the Llŷn Peninsula and the Snowdonia coast in north-west Wales. It includes the tidal extents of the Glaslyn and Dwyryd estuaries, up to the High Water Mark. The MCA is characterised by shallower waters (informed by bathymetry) and markedly lower wave climate/wave exposure compared with the surrounding MCAs. The rocky reef of Sarn Badrig forms the southern MCA boundary, with associated rough, shallow waters as marked on the Marine Charts. The coastal areas which form the northern boundary of the MCA are contained within NLCAs 4: Llŷn and 5: Tremadoc Bay. www.naturalresourceswales.gov.uk MCA 14 Tremadog Bay and Dwyryd Estuary - Page 1 of 9 Key Characteristics Key Characteristics A sweeping, shallow bay with wide sandy beaches, and a distinctive swash-aligned coastal landform at Morfa Harlech. To the north, the rugged coastal peak of Moel-y- Gest is a prominent landmark. Extensive intertidal area at the mouth of the Dwyryd estuary, with a meandering channel running through it, and continuing inland. Ynys Gifftan is located in the estuary. Shallow mud and sand substrate overlying Oligocene and Permo-Triassic sedimentary rock with a diverse infaunal community. Traditionally, mariners used sounding leads on to follow the ‘muddy hollow’ from off St Tudwal’s East to Porthmadog fairway buoy. Includes part of the designated Lleyn Peninsula and the Sarnau SAC, recognised for its reefs, shallow inlets and estuaries. Extensive intertidal habitats and river channels designated SAC and SSSI (Morfa Harlech and Glaslyn) provide important bird feeding and overwintering sites and habitat for rare plants and insects.

  • SEASIDE TOWNS in WALES: a ‘Benchmarking’ Study
    SEASIDE TOWNS IN WALES: A ‘benchmarking’ study Christina Beatty, Steve Fothergill and Ian Wilson Centre for Regional Economic and Social Research Sheffield Hallam University Report to Visit Wales The findings in this report are the sole responsibility of the authors and do not necessarily represent the views of Visit Wales or the Welsh Assembly Government November 2009 1 Contents Summary 1. SCOPE OF THE REPORT 2. STATISTICAL EVIDENCE • Population • Language • Employment • Economic status • Skills and qualifications • Benefits • Seasonal unemployment • Earnings • Business stock • Migrant workers • Economic output • Housing • Deprivation 3. ASSESSMENT Many of the statistics presented in this report have been compiled from data held on NOMIS: National Statistics ( www.nomisweb.co.uk ). Crown copyright material is reproduced with the permission of the Controller, Office of Public Sector Information (OPSI). 2 Summary This report provides a new information base on seaside towns in Wales. It presents a range of statistical evidence on socio-economic conditions and compares the figures with averages for Wales as a whole. The report is directly comparable to two recently completed studies for seaside towns in England and, where possible, makes comparisons between seaside towns in Wales and those in England. The report is the first of two outputs from new research funded by Visit Wales. The second output, anticipated shortly, is the inclusion of Welsh seaside towns alongside their English counterparts in a study measuring the scale, location and trends in the seaside tourist industry. The report focuses on ‘seaside towns’ or ‘resorts’ – that is, places where seaside tourism is an important part of the local economy – rather than on all places along the coast.
