Planning permission for new residential development will be subject to the limitations stipulated in Policy H6. (Southern Lliw Valley Local Plan) Policy EQ8 There is a presumption against development which would encroach into SLV the countryside or which would lead to the coalescence of settlements. (Southern Lliw Valley Local Plan) Policy EQ9 It is the policy of the Borough Council that three areas are designated as SLV `Green Wedges’, in order to maintain their rural environment, and protect them from sporadic development and the encroachment of the urban area. The areas are: 1. Between Dunvant and Gowerton, and extending to the Borough boundary adjoining Penclawdd. 2. Between Gowerton and Kingsbridge, extending from Loughor to Penllergaer/Cadle Mill; 3. Between Penllergaer and Llangyfelach. (Southern Lliw Valley Local Plan) Policy H6 SLV Outside the existing boundaries of the settlements within the plan area, the only form of new housing development that will be allowed will be that which is essentially required in connection with agriculture, forestry or mining. (Southern Lliw Valley Local Plan) Policy C1 The environment and natural beauty of the countryside throughout West WGSP Glamorgan will be protected for its own sake, and where appropriate, will be enhanced and managed. In the Gower Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty the protection of natural beauty will be the primary objective.

The area between Neath and Tonna. (West Glamorgan Structure Plan Review No. 2) Policy C5 In the open countryside, development will not be permitted except WGSP where: i. It is essential for the rural economy or rural employment, or ii. It can be demonstrated to meet the overriding social or economic needs of the local community, or iii. It is for a replacement dwelling on an agricultural holding, or iv. It provides an acceptable use for redundant building(s) and the adaptation of the building(s) to the new use is sensitive to the surrounding natural landscape and built environment, or v. It is essential for communications, telecommunications, and other forms of utility service provision, renewable energy generation or minerals extraction, or vi. It is an appropriate development associated with nature conservation, rural recreation and tourism or farm diversification, and vii. The land is of poor agricultural, conservation, or ecological value, and the development does not adversely affect the viability of an established farm unit.

Policy EV20 - Criteria for the consideration of new dwellings in the countryside. UDP Policy EV22 - The countryside will be conserved and enhanced for the sake of its UDP natural heritage, natural resources, historic and cultural environment and agricultural and recreational environment. SITE HISTORY None Response to Consultations The application was advertised on site and in the press as a departure from the development plan and 1 neighbouring dwelling was individually consulted. NO letters of OBJECTION were received. Gower Society: Object on the following grounds: 1. The Society supports proven legitimate applications for such houses. 2. In this case, we are concerned however as to the true needs for such a dwelling, particularly when so close to urban areas i.e there are plenty of houses available on the open market within a short distance. 3. We recall what may have been previous applications for other developments at this location, but not in the name of Cefn Stylle Farm. This must be checked and fully considered. 4. Unless a fully substantiated agricultural need can be established, we must object to this proposal. As farming is in relative recession and numbers of employees have decreased in recent years, this is an unusual application. 5. If the application is allowed, the dwelling must be tied in to a watertight agricultural tenancy agreement/ Gowerton Community Council: No objection Highway Observations – This proposal for an agricultural workers dwelling is unlikely to result in any highway safety applications and I therefore recommend that no highway objections are raised. Applicant’s supporting Statement In support of the planning application, the applicant’s agents on behalf of the applicant has submitted a Supporting Statement. The appraisal and comments on the need for an agricultural dwelling are as follows: AREA 2 DEVELOPMENT CONTROL COMMITTEE – 5TH AUGUST 2008 ITEM 9 (CONT’D) APPLICATION NO. 2008/1009 APPLICANT Functional Test • The total farmed area is 353ha (872 acres) or thereabouts of enclosed land with common grazing rights. Of this 215.7ha (533 acres) is owned with the remainder rented on either short-term tenancies, business tenancies or grazing licence. In addition there is common grazing on Gowerton and Penclawdd Marshes being some 130ha (323 acres) for 1,500 sheep. The intertidal marsh lies within the Bury inlet and Loughor Estuary and is designated a SSSI as well as being a RAMSA international wetland site. A management agreement with the Countryside Council for Wales allows Messrs Evans to graze the land with some 750 ewes over a 10month annual period. • Some 61.5ha (152 acres) of rented land lies within 5 miles south and south- west of the homestead and the remaining 75ha (187 acres) some 6miles south- west of Cefn Stylle. • The 55.4ha (137 acres) of land is known as Breos Farm and this land has been taken for the past 7 years on an annual Farm Business Tenancy (the owners of this land are Mr and Mrs S Evans parents in law). • Current stock on the farm is: 160 suckler cows, 50 heifers, 6 bulls, 550 ewes, 150 ewe lambs and 16 rams. Most of the suckler cows are housed at Cefn Stylle with the remainder housed over the winter period in buildings at Breos Farm, Parkmill, returning to Cefn Stylle for calving in the Spring. • All ewes are scanned in December and all are housed from January until lambing starts in mid-February. Subject to weather conditions the ewes and lambs are released some days after lambing to paddocks near the farmstead.

Golyga ei ddaeareg fod ynddo amrywiaeth ysblennydd o olygfeydd o fewn ardal gymharol fechan, o olygfeydd carreg galch Pen Pyrrod, Three Cliffs Bay ac Oxwich Bay yng nglannau’r de i halwyndiroedd a thwyni tywod y gogledd. Mae trumiau tywodfaen yn nodweddu asgwrn cefn y penrhyn, gan gynnwys y man uchaf, Cefn Bryn: a cheir yno diroedd comin eang. Canlyniad y golygfeydd eithriadol a’r traethau tywodlyd, euraidd wrth droed y clogwyni yw bod yr ardal yn denu ymwelwyr yn eu miloedd. Gall y priffyrdd fod yn brysur, wrth i bobl heidio at y traethau mwyaf golygfaol. Mae pwysau twristiaeth wedi newid y cymeriad diwylliannol.

Yn rhai mannau mae’r hen batrymau caeau lleiniog yn parhau, gyda thirwedd “Vile” Rhosili yn oroesiad eithriadol. Ar lannau mwy agored y gorllewin, ac ar dir uwch, mae traddodiad cloddiau pridd a charreg yn parhau, sy’n nodweddiadol o ardaloedd lle bo coed yn brin.

  • Programme – Swansea Ramblers We Offer Short & Long Walks All Year
    Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Exploring countryside above Crynant v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Saturday walks: Weekly Saturday walks are a great way to begin exploring the countryside and are no more than 6 miles in length. Occasionally there may be a longer walk in addition to the shorter walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice. Short Introductory walks: We provide occasional 2-3 mile walks, mostly on a weekday as an introduction to walking.
