  • St Athan at Route July21
    St Athan Active Travel route Consultation report 16 July 2021 Introduction Public consultation was undertaken on the Vale of Glamorgan Council’s proposals to upgrade the existing footway provision into a shared use footway/cycleway from St Athan village to Eglwys Brewis between June and July 2021. Consultation Activities The following activities were undertaken to promote the consultation: • Letter drop to properties in the vicinity of the scheme • Site notices in the vicinity of the scheme • Email to stakeholders and statutory consultees • Press release • Information on the Council Active Travel webpage • Social media An online survey was provided to record consultation responses. Paper copies of the survey were also made available on request. Consultation Results Despite a mail drop to 800 houses in the vicinity, only 22 responses were received. 72% of which were in favour of the scheme. We can only assume that the majority of the 800 houses that had a mail dropped letter informing them of the consultation, are not against the proposed schemes. Changes to the Scheme for consideration: Following scheme consultation, the following changes to the scheme will be considered when construction is undertaken: • Existing street lighting provisions will be reviewed and upgraded where necessary, therefore providing street lighting across the scheme extents. • A possible footway / crossing facility option from the Clive Road junction across to the proposed shared use footway on the Western side will be reviewed, however the close proximity of trees and their roots will need to be considered and could affect the possible installation of any improvements in this location. Consultation comments Three questions were asked on the consultation survey.

FILLING THE GAPS: THE IRON AGE IN CARDIFF AND THE VALE OF GLAMORGAN Abstract Over the last 20 years interpretive approaches within Iron Age studies in Britain have moved from the national to the regional. This was an important development which challenged the notion that a unified, British, Iron Age ever existed. However, whilst this approach has allowed regional histories to be told in their own right there has been far too much focus on ‘key’ areas such as Wessex and Yorkshire.

  • Aberthaw-Community-Newsletter
    November 2020 Lorry re-route is good news for community Welsh Deputy Minister and Chief Whip Jane Hutt, and Vale of Glamorgan MP Alun Cairns, have welcomed our recent move to re-route some of our Tarmac lorries on their journey to and from Ewenny and Bridgend. on The upgrade of a section of the B4270 means that Tarmac lorries (like the one seen here) and contractor hauliers can now use this new route to reach the A48, avoiding the B4265 which runs through Wick and St Brides Major. Aberthaw in your local community Andy Watkins (left) and Hesh Ibsule (right) Plant Manager Stuart Escott says: “We are always (Picture taken prior to Covid-19 restrictions) looking for ways to reduce our impact on the surrounding communities. The road upgrade has First aider to the rescue! offered us a great opportunity to divert our lorries away from these villages, and it also provides a Hesh Ibsule, Maintenance Technician here at Aberthaw safer and more efficient route for our drivers.” Works is a true superhero! Late last year, Hesh saved the life of one of his site colleagues, Packing Plant Supervisor Andy Watkins, by performing the ‘Heimlich manoeuvre’ when he began choking. The incident could so easily have had a very different outcome had Hesh not been first aid trained. Commenting about the incident Hesh says: “I’ve never in 10 years of being a first aider had to use my training, but when Andy started to choke during lunch, I responded, remembering immediately the steps to take when a person is choking: back slaps followed by abdominal Working safely through thrusts.

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.
