  • Affordable Housing Provision – September 2012
    Schedule of Questions to Participants 10.30am Lyn Hambidge, Head of Housing Commissioning, PCC Short presentation describing: • your role in the provision of affordable housing; and • your experience of contributing to the provision of affordable housing in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park; also • Any observations you may wish to make on the comparison between PCC’s and PCNPA’s policies on the effectiveness in meeting the county’s affordable housing needs. Questions 1. What do you consider are the most significant challenges facing the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority in helping to deliver affordable housing? 2. What actions are needed to address or mitigate these challenges? 3. The Authority’s supplementary planning guidance sets out terms for the provision of low cost home ownership and rented properties by private developers which mirror the provisions in the social rented and the ‘home buy’ style schemes used by Registered Social Landlords. If the provisions were relaxed for private developers would this increase the provision of affordable housing in this National Park? 4. Are you aware of any exemplar approaches to affordable housing delivery that this Authority could learn from? 5. Is the level of housing need a more significant issue in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park than outside it? 6. Under the Council’s Local Development Plan policies how long will it take to address housing need (including the backlog)? 7. What is the Council’s position on suspending the Right to Buy and Right to Acquire in this National Park? Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority Scrutiny Committee 28th November 2012 Page 1 11.30am Matthew Owens, Rural Housing Enabler Short presentation describing: • your role in the provision of affordable housing; and • your experience of contributing to the provision of affordable housing in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park; also • your view as to the effectiveness of the PCNPA’s approach to affordable housing.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................

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.
