    Agenda Item No. THE VALE OF GLAMORGAN COUNCIL VALE OF GLAMORGAN CONSERVATION AREA ADVISORY GROUP : 19 JANUARY 2012 REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR OF ENVIRONMENTAL AND ECONOMIC REGENERATION 2011/01257/FUL Received on 13 December 2011 Mrs. Elizabeth Renwick,, Ty Mawr, Llanbethery, Barry, Vale of Glamorgan., CF62 3AN Nick Renwick Architect,, Ty Cattwg, Llancarfan, Barry, Vale of Glamorgan., CF62 3AL Ty Mawr, Llanbethery, Barry Construction of new house The development/property is situated within the Llanbethery Conservation Area. The application will be advertised. Site and Context The site is located on the main road through the hamlet of Llanbethery, and between Whitwell House to the west and the garden of Ty Mawr to the east. Ty Mawr is a locally listed County Treasure, having an enclosed garden and coursed stone stable block, and occupying a central position in the hamlet. The site is 0.03 hectares in size and is described in the forms as a ‘redundant vegetable garden’, this being enclosed to side and rear by traditional high stone boundary walling, with a lower stone wall to the frontage and Leylandii trees to the boundary with Whitwell House. The overall character of the Llanbethery Conservation Area is defined in the Conservation Area Appraisal, as “mainly white painted historic buildings which sit close to the road, and the rest of the buildings which provide attractive front gardens with stone walling, trees and hedging. The rural qualities of the hamlet are reinforced by the grass verges, informal street surfaces (no pavements) and close proximity of the surrounding countryside”. Llanbethery is also located within the Lower Thaw Valley Special Landscape Area.

  • Plymouth House West Dimlands Road, Llantwit Major, Cardiff
    Plymouth House West Dimlands Road, Llantwit Major, Cardiff. CF61 1SJ Plymouth House West Dimlands Road, Llantwit Major, Cardiff. CF61 1SJ This outstanding, three storey house is set in the heart of the beautiful Medieval town with its own railway station, excellent schools and amenities and within walking distance of the beach. Cardiff is just 10 miles away with its major travel links by road, air and rail. This half of a historic house of significance has parts which date back to the 1300s, and has a unique mix of Georgian and Medieval sections all restored to the highest of standards retaining an abundance of its original features. The house is built on exposed bedrock forming the private driveway and terraces around the house. There is a stunning central walled courtyard and set above is an extensive mature and well stocked garden with a unique stone bridge linking the garden to the guest suite, giving the guest suite its own external access. Plymouth House has a fascinating history. Once home to the Earl of Plymouth, this former manor has medieval roots, its listing referring to the West wing as 15th Century but an old stone mullion window within the house, discovered during the recent restoration of the property has been dated at around 1300. The property features in The Greater Houses of Glamorgan and The Royal Commission on Ancient and Historical Monuments in Wales. The house has two distinct atmospheres. The front of the property is Georgian with a drawing room of grand proportions and the rear section, which includes the former dairy, has a more intimate atmosphere, with oak beams and flagstone floors.

  • Gb 0214 Dnca
    DNCA Reference code(s): GB 0214 DNCA Title: Nicholl Carne Family Papers Creation date(s): 1842-2002 Level of description: Fonds Extent: 0.18 cubic metres (6 archive boxes, 1 wooden box, 1 roll & 1 packet) Name of creator(s): Nicholl-Carne family CONTEXT Administrative/Biographical history: The earliest references to the Nicholl family first occur in Glamorgan in the late 15th century, in connection with the Great House, alias Ty Mawr, and the Ham from 1597, but until the mid 19th century were comparatively modest landowners in Llantwit Major and nearby parishes, notably Coety and Laleston. Their prominence largely develops from the time of the Rev. Robert Nicholl (1763-1849), of the Ham, Llantwit Major, ordained in 1787, curate of Chevenage, Gloucestershire, 1788-1789, and later rector of Port Eynon, Glamorgan, (1795) and Llanmaes, Glamorgan (1824). Robert received bequests in 1783 and 1786, and an annuity of £105 under the will of his father, Whitlock (d 1788). This enabled him to purchase, in 1791, the estate of the late Thomas Lewis in Llanblethian, Glamorgan, but he remained heavily dependent on donations from relatives until his marriage to Mary Woodward, of Chevenage. In 1795, they moved to Llanmaes House, and he paid more attention to the estate in Llantwit Major. From his father, he had inherited 99 acres, mostly near Dimlands and Frampton, but set about concentrating his estate around Dimlands, and began construction of a mansion there in 1799; up to his death in 1849, he continued to acquire property in the nearby parishes of Llanblethian and Llanmaes and further afield: he acquired land at Brynsach, 1817, by exchange, Westfield, by purchase, and Sheeplays farm, 1835, at an auction of Bute property.
