    November 2020 Summary Full report and maps: https://ldbc.gov.wales/ @LDBCW This document is available in Welsh County Borough of Caerphilly Summary of Final Recommendations Who we are : The Local Democracy and Boundary Commission for Wales is an independent Welsh Government Sponsored Body. It was established under the Local Democracy (Wales) Act 2013 with the main purpose of publishing a programme of work which keeps under review the electoral arrangements for the 22 principal councils. The Commission makes electoral review recommendations, which it feels are in the interest of effective and convenient local government. This review has been conducted as a result of the former Cabinet Secretary for Finance and Local Government’s Written Statement of 23 June 2016 as part of an all Wales review programme for the 2022 local government elections. © Crown copyright and database rights [2020] OS [100047875] Summary of our Recommendations: The Commission recommends a council of 69 members, a reduction from the present 73 members. The Commission recommends a change to the arrangement of electoral wards that will achieve a marked improvement in the level of electoral parity across the County Borough of Caerphilly. The Commission recommends 30 electoral wards, a reduction from 33 existing wards. The largest under-representation is recommended to be 24% above the proposed county average in Aberbargoed and Bargoed. The largest over-representation is recommended to be 20% below the proposed county average in Aber Valley. The Commission is recommending 25 multi-member wards consisting of 12 two- member electoral wards; 12 three-member electoral wards; and one four-member electoral ward.

Indeed, the Vale of Glamorgan has over 100 Scheduled Ancient Monuments, over 700 Listed Buildings and 38 Conservation Areas that are afforded statutory protection by legislation. However, this system of statutory recognition, by its nature, only takes account of items of exceptional significance. Often there are locally important buildings that although acknowledged not to be of ‘national’ or ‘exceptional’ importance, are considered key examples of vernacular architecture or buildings, which have an important local history. It is these buildings which are often the main contributors to local distinctiveness, but which have to date, remained un-surveyed and afforded little recognition or protection. The original County Treasures project was published by the then South Glamorgan County Council in the late 1970’s. It was conceived as a locally adopted inventory of ‘special features’ in the former County area. However, as a result of local government restructuring, the changes to local authority boundaries, as well as changes in responsibilities and funding mechanisms the survey was never completed, and as a consequence was not comprehensive in its coverage.

This letter briefly summaries the Tirwedd y Comin project, thanks partners that have been involved and announces that we have been successful in securing future funding. The Tirwedd y Comin project was very much a ‘pilot’ project to address issues but also identify opportunities on Gelligaer & Merthyr Common. We have had limited engagement with community councils during the project but hope we can work with you more in the next project to keep you updated, advertise events, highlight volunteer activities and ensure a consistent message about what the common is, dos & don’ts, who to report issues too etc. Unless there are any objections I will include you, the local community councils to the common in future updates as the next project progresses, overview of this project attached.

    Early Neolithic Enclosures in Wales: a Review of the Evidence in Light of Recent Discoveries at Caerau, Cardiff

    The Antiquaries Journal, page 1 of 26 © The Society of Antiquaries of London, 2017 doi:10.1017⁄s0003581517000282 EARLY NEOLITHIC ENCLOSURES IN WALES: A REVIEW OF THE EVIDENCE IN LIGHT OF RECENT DISCOVERIES AT CAERAU, CARDIFF Oliver Davis and Niall Sharples, FSA, with a contribution from Jody Deacon Oliver Davis, School of History, Archaeology and Religion, University of Cardiff, John Percival Building, Colum Drive, Cardiff CF10 3EU, UK. Email: [email protected] Niall Sharples, FSA, School of History, Archaeology and Religion, University of Cardiff, John Percival Building, Colum Drive, Cardiff CF10 3EU, UK. Email: [email protected] Causewayed enclosures have recently been at the forefront of debate within British and European Neolithic studies. In the British Isles as a whole, the vast majority of these monuments are located in southern England, but a few sites are now beginning to be discovered beyond this core region. The search in Wales had seen limited success, but in the 1990s a number of cropmark discoveries suggested the presence of such enclosures west of the River Severn. Nonetheless, until now only two enclosures have been confirmed as Neolithic in Wales – Banc Du (in Pembrokeshire) and Womaston (in Powys) – although neither produced more than a handful of sherds of pottery, flint or other material culture. Recent work by the authors at the Iron Age hillfort of Caerau, Cardiff, have confirmed the presence of another, large, Early Neolithic causewayed enclosure in the country. Excavations of the enclosure ditches have produced a substantial assemblage of bowl pottery, comparable with better-known enclosures in England, as well as ten radiocarbon dates.

INTRODUCTION 1.1 Planning Policy Wales [PPW] (Fourth edition, 2011) requires Local Development Plans [LDPs] sustainable settlement strategies to be informed by an assessment of settlements to ensure they accord with the sustainable location principles contained within national planning policy (see PPW Section 4.6 Sustainable settlement strategy: locating new development). 1.2 As part of the evidence base for the Vale of Glamorgan LDP, the Council has undertaken an audit of services and facilities within the Vale of Glamorgan’s settlements in order to identify those which are potentially suitable to accommodate additional development in terms of their location, role and function. This assessment therefore forms part of the evidence base for the Vale of Glamorgan LDP Settlement Hierarchy by identifying broad groupings of settlements with similar roles and functions based upon the following research objectives: Objective 1: To assess the need for residents to commute beyond their settlement to access key employment, retail and community facilities (including education and health). Objective 2: To measure the general level of accessibility of settlements by sustainable transport.
