Whether they mounted their attacks from the north or the south, when Norman barons invaded Wales after the Norman Conquest of 1066, they almost invariably ended up in West Wales and consolidated their position by building fortresses. Initially, these were simple “motte and bailey” constructions, typically built on a mound with ditches and/or wooden barricades for protection.

18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request
18 April 2019. Dear , ATISN 13078 – Freedom of Information Request – Caerphilly Castle. Thank you for your request, which was received on 21st March 2019, about Caerphilly Castle. The information you requested is enclosed. A copy of all proposals, in their current form for the Castle, its grounds and waters (also referred to elsewhere as the ‘masterplan’). Please find attached the current Part A and Part B Masterplan documents. It is important to stress that this is a broad framework that helps capture a range of outline projects, themes and ideas that will be explored through formal business and option appraisal arrangements over the next three years. We will not necessarily be pursuing all of the projects, or in the form that they are suggested, in the plan. In as full detail as possible the planned works to the lakes and moats and the purpose of these works. The only current planned works is to undertake annual Canadian Pondweed clearance between 3rd – 21st June and 30th Sept – 18th October 2019, as agreed with the Caerphilly Angling Club and NRW at a meeting held on 20th December 2018 with Cadw. These works are necessary to control the invasive, rapid weed growth in order to maintain the biodiversity (i.e. the health of the moat and the wildlife living within in it) and the aesthetics of the moat. No further works are planned beyond this presently. 1 Any formal risk-assessment in respect of the issue of back to back fishing on the Northern Lake walkway. Cadw have not undertaken any formal risk assessment in relation to the above.

PLANED Natural Capital Audit – Appendices
CONTRACT WWB/02/07 NNAATTUURRAALL CCAAPPIITTAALL AAUUDDIITT 2: APPENDICES Collation of summarised information on biodiversity and the wider environment to assist the farming community of this region in diversification of interests. This report is a synthesis of available information on all aspects of natural and cultural heritage. Prepared for Planed on 29 February 2008 by West Wales Biodiversity Information Centre Landsker Business Centre, Llwynybrain, Whitland, Carmarthenshire SA34 0NG. Telephone 01994 241468. www.wwbic.org.uk With additional information supplied by: Cambria Archaeology, Environment Agency and Sid Howells. Contributors: Louise Austin, Sarah Beynon, Rob Davies, Sid Howells, Jon Hudson, Kate Jones, Marion Page, Vicky Swann. PLANED: Natural Capital Audit West Wales Biodiversity 2008 1 APPENDIX 1: Farmer Profiles Intensive farmers (dairy) Farmer 1 Farm 1 supports 3 sons as well as parents, and therefore on a farm of 430 acres (plus 170 acres of rented land), diversification has been necessary. They own an agri-contracting business and permit shooting walks on the farm. They are milking over 150 cows, and grow arable crops on their land: 46 acres of maize and 230 acres of corn. They are currently not in any agri-environment scheme other than a Catchment Sensitive Farming project: Deep Ford Brook project. However, he says that again, this brings with it more red tape: he can now not increase stock numbers, and believes this is just another way of getting information regarding fertiliser usage: “it is just NVC through the back door”. Farmer 1 adds that “a stocking rate of 1 cow per acre has been pushed by the government over the past 40 years” and therefore, due to financial reasons, they cannot justify any management regulations placed on their productive grazing land.
