It is more of a residential area, however St Georges Church Hall located in Cwmparc offers a variety of activities for the community, including Yoga, playgroup and history classes. Ynyswen is a village in the community of Treorchy, 0.6 miles north of Treorchy. It consists mostly of housing but has an industrial estate which was once the site of the Burberry’s factory, one shop and the Forest View Medical Centre. Although there are no petrol stations in the Treorchy area, transport is relatively good throughout the valley. However, there is no Sunday bus service in Cwmparc. Treorchy has a large population of young people and although there are opportunities to engage with sport activities it is evident that there are fewer affordable activities for young women to engage in.

  • 5. Landscape and Visual Executive Summary
    Chapter 5 Upper Ogmore Wind Farm & Energy Storage Facility Landscape and Visual Environmental Statement 5. Landscape and Visual Executive Summary 5.1 The landscape and visual impact assessment considers the effects of the Proposed Development on landscape character and visual amenity within a study area up to 15 km from the site. The assessment has been undertaken in accordance with all relevant published guidance on the topic, and has involved desk-based and field- based assessments. The approach and scope of the assessment was agreed through scoping and through consultation with local planning authorities. 5.2 The baseline for the assessment includes landscape and visual receptors. The landscape of the site and study area is described through observations made in the field, and drawing on published landscape character assessments and the LANDMAP database. Visual receptors include people in settlements, using the local area for recreation, and travelling through the area on roads. Representative viewpoints have been selected to assess the range of visual receptors, and these viewpoints were agreed through consultation. 5.3 The assessment of effects considers the embedded mitigation achieved through the design process, as set out in Chapter 2 Design Evolution. 5.4 Localised significant landscape effects are predicted during the construction stage, affecting the site itself and the local area of the Mynydd Llangeinwyr Uplands LCA. Due to local topography, construction works will not be widely visible from adjacent valley landscapes. 5.5 During operation, the introduction of seven large turbines alongside access tracks, substation, control building and the Energy Storage Facility (ESF), will give rise to a major (significant) effect on the landscape of the site and the surrounding Mynydd Llangeinwyr Uplands LCA.
