  • Talybont Farm Llawhaden | Narberth | Pembrokeshire | SA67 8HJ Talybont Farmhouse
    Talybont Farm Llawhaden | Narberth | Pembrokeshire | SA67 8HJ Talybont Farmhouse “We immediately fell for this house as soon as we stepped through the front door. It offers space and tranquillity. The farmhouse is in a unique, almost fairytale, location with views of the medieval castle and church while the River Cleddau meanders its way through the countryside below,” says Jackie. “We have lived at the property for five years and have refurbished much of the house to ensure it is maintained to a high standard. We have refitted the bathrooms and converted the Aga from oil to electric,” says David. “As well as this we have two large log burners which create an inviting home in the winter months.” “Since moving into the property we have created further accommodation in a disused barn. This was stripped bare and converted into a two bedroom cottage. At the moment we use it for when friends and family come to visit but it could also be used as an annexe, holiday let or to run a business from. The house has a welcoming farmhouse style kitchen and dining room. It is my favourite room with a large inglenook fireplace which is big enough to sit in!” says Jackie. “It is a very comfortable house in the winter and our kitchen is the heart of the home where we spend the majority of our time.” “Our motivation in moving to Llawhaden was to leave the city life and embrace a fully rural way of life. At the farmhouse we have been able to do just that.

Advice Having carefully considered the information provided with this planning application, we consider that the proposed development will not cause any damage to the settings of any scheduled monument. We therefore have no objections to the impact of the proposed development on scheduled monuments. Our assessment of the application is given below. Our role Our statutory role in the planning process is to provide the local planning authority with an assessment concerned with the likely impact that the proposal will have on scheduled monuments, registered historic parks and gardens, registered historic landscapes where an Environmental Impact Assessment is required and development likely to have an impact on the outstanding universal value of a World Heritage Site. We do not provide an assessment of the likely impact of the development on listed buildings or conservation areas, as these are matters for the local authority.

  • This Map Shows the Surficial Geology of Kent County, Delaware, at a Scale of 1:100,000
    Identification_Information: Description: Abstract: This map shows the surficial geology of Kent County, Delaware, at a scale of 1:100,000. Maps at this scale are useful for viewing general geologic framework on a county-wide basis, determining the geology of watersheds, and recognizing the relationship of geology to regional or county-wide environmental or land-use issues. The map was compiled from topographic and geologic maps, aerial photographs, geologists' and drillers' logs, geophysical logs, soils maps, and sample descriptions. Samples from drill holes and outcrops were examined for comparison with previous descriptions. Descriptions of geologic units, unless otherwise referenced, were generated by the author after examination of cores, outcrops, and samples from the Delaware Geological Survey Core and Sample Repository. Purpose: This map, when combined with subsurface geologic information, provides a basis for locating water supplies, mapping ground-water recharge areas, and protecting ground and surface water. Geologic maps are also used to identify geologic hazards such as sinkholes and flood prone areas, to identify sand and gravel resources, and for supporting state, county, and local land-use and planning decisions.
