On Freshwater West Beach, Pembrokeshire
Survey & Recording of an “Upside Down Wreck” on Freshwater West Beach, Pembrokeshire Remains of the “Upside Down Wreck” at Low Water (Photographs: Ian Cundy) 1 Survey and Recording of an “Upside Down Wreck” on Freshwater West Beach, Pembrokeshire Prepared by: Malvern Archaeological Diving Unit 17 Hornyold Road Malvern Worcestershire WR14 1QQ March 2014 Report Authors: Ian Cundy, BSc, MA & William Turner (Malvern Archaeological Diving Unit) Report Ref: MADU – Upside Down Wreck - 2014 © 2014 Malvern Archaeological Diving Unit 2 1.0 Introduction Following storms that ravaged the United Kingdom during the first couple of months of 2014, numerous sightings of wreckage were reported around the coast of the United Kingdom including the site in Pembrokeshire, South Wales to which this report relates. On 17th February the report of an “Upside Down Wreck” on Freshwater West Beach was made by Peter Crane from the Pembrokeshire Coast National Parks Authority to Deanna Groom at the Royal Commission on the Ancient & Historical Monuments of Wales (RCAHMW). Deanna subsequently sent an e-mail to Mark Beattie-Edwards at the Nautical Archaeology Society (NAS) asking if a Total Station survey of the wreck could be carried out, and the Malvern Archaeological Diving Unit (MADU) were requested to follow this up. On the first opportunity when the weather and tides were suitable, Ian Cundy and Bill Turner from MADU paid a visit to the site, and this document is a report of their findings. 3 2.0 Table of Contents Page No. 1.0 Introduction 3 2.0 Table of Contents -
Report on Marine Protected Areas
Welsh Government Report to the National Assembly for Wales on Marine Protected Areas in Wales February 2014 © Crown Copyright 2014 Digital ISBN 978 1 4734 0974 3 WG20649 CONTENTS Introduction 2 Background 4 National, European and International commitments 5 Current Marine Protected Areas in Wales 7 Assessment of existing Marine Protected Areas 13 MPA management 16 Annex 17 INTRODUCTION 1. This document provides the Welsh Government’s Report to the National Assembly for Wales on the Marine Protected Areas network, in response to recommendation 10 of the Environment and Sustainability Committee’s Marine Inquiry. Recommendation 10: By the 31 December 2013, the Welsh Government should voluntarily lay before the Assembly a report that meets the requirement of section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009. This report should include an appraisal of the environmental status, governance and enforcement of existing marine protected areas. 2. Section 124 of the Marine and Coastal Access Act 2009 (the Marine Act) requires the Welsh Ministers to lay a report before the National Assembly for Wales on the extent to which it has achieved the objectives in the Marine Act to use conservation sites to contribute to a UK network of marine protected areas. The report must cover further steps needed to meet the network objectives, as well as specific details on any Marine Conservation Zones that have been designated. 3. The network objectives as detailed in section 123 of the Marine Act are that European marine sites (Special Areas of Conservation, Special Protection Areas), Sites of Special Scientific Interest and Ramsar sites form a network which contributes to the conservation or improvement of the marine environment in the UK marine area; where the features which are protected by the sites comprised in the network represent the range of features present in the UK marine area; and recognises the conservation of a feature may require the designation of more than one site. -

Sea Spiders (Pycnogonids) in and Around Milford Haven
Field Studies6 (1986),517-529 SEA SPIDERS(PYCNOGONIDS) IN AND AROUND MILFORD HAVEN (SouthWest Sfales) P. E. KING eNoR. M. CASE Marine ResearchGroup, School of BiologicalSciences, Uniaersity College of Swansea, SingletonPark, SwanseaS42 8PP, Wales,U.K. ABsrRAcr Thirteen ofthe 19 British speciesofPycnogonids (seaspiders) have been recorded in and around Milford Haven in southwest Vales. The sites from which each species has been recorded are listed and maps are provided for the more widely distributed. The influence of salinity and other estuarine factors affecting their penetration into the Daucleddau (the joint estuary of the Eastern and rffestern Cleddau rivers) is discussed. INrnooucrroN THr Pycnogonida are a group of marine arthropods often referred to as seaspiders. Their general biology has been reviewed by Thompson (1909), Helfer and Schlottke (1935), Fage (1949) and King (1973).Their distribution in the British Isles recorded by Hodge (1864), Thompson (1909), Hodgson (1910), Halhed (1896), Carpenter (1905, l9l2), Bruce, Colman and Jones(1963), King, Wyer and Jarvis (1971) and King (1972,1976). Speciesoccurring in Pembrokeshirewere recorded by Crothers (1966) and King and Crapp (1971). Since that time the list has been extended and further studies have suggestedsome changesin the relationship and validity of some species(Fry, 1978). King (1986) has revised the earlier keys and summarised the current position on taxonomy and nomenclature. The present study updates the pycnogonid records for Pembrokeshire and describesin more detail their distribution in Milford Haven. DrsrRrsurroN rN $fESr Werns King and Crapp (1971) listed eleven speciesfrom Pembrokeshire (now part of Dyfed). Since that time two more have been added, Endeis charybdaea and Anoplodactylus petiolatus. -
