AGENDA ITEM No. 16 MEETING : TRUST BOARD DATE : 29 JANUARY 2008 REPORT OF : DEPUTY CHIEF EXECUTIVE Contact : Andy Roughton Regional Director C&W Officer Tel: 01792 562929 Email: [email protected] POWYS – UPDATE REPORT Purpose 1. To inform the Board of the current position within Powys. RECOMMENDED: That the report be received. Introduction 2. The Powys locality currently operates from 12 ambulance stations and at peak times aims to roster 12 ambulance resources at any one time. Appendix A shows the levels of activity and the distribution of activity over a 91 day period. Appendix B shows the average peak activity over a 50 week period by day of the week across Powys. The columns show planned crewing levels and the red line shows the rota required taking account of a three hour job cycle. Due to the geographical size of the area, low call volumes and spread of activity throughout the locality, compliance with response standards is challenging within the current traditional ambulance service delivery model employed (Appendix A). However, the rostered level of ambulance resources is sufficient to service the current call volume (Appendix B). 3. Recruitment and retention of staff has also been a challenge in the past, leaving the region with 4 vacancies and an additional requirement for 3 vacancies to increase the relief percentage to the Trust’s target of 26%. 4. Powys has no General Hospital and therefore average job cycle times are incurred of up to 3 hours when patients are conveyed and therefore the Trust’s inability to maintain suitable cover within the locality further compromises our ability to meet response standards.

2 Powys Local Development Plan Written Statement
Powys LDP 2011-2026: Deposit Draft with Focussed Changes and Further Focussed Changes plus Matters Arising Changes September 2017 2 Powys Local Development Plan 2011 – 2026 1/4/2011 to 31/3/2026 Written Statement Adopted April 2018 (Proposals & Inset Maps published separately) Adopted Powys Local Development Plan 2011-2026 This page left intentionally blank Cyngor Sir Powys County Council Adopted Powys Local Development Plan 2011-2026 Foreword I am pleased to introduce the Powys County Council Local Development Plan as adopted by the Council on 17th April 2017. I am sincerely grateful to the efforts of everyone who has helped contribute to the making of this Plan which is so important for the future of Powys. Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs. At the same time the Plan provides the protection for our outstanding and important natural, built and cultural environments that make Powys such an attractive and special place in which to live, work, visit and enjoy. Our efforts along with all our partners must now shift to delivering the Plan for the benefit of our communities. Councillor Martin Weale Portfolio Holder for Economy and Planning

'IARRIAGES Introduction This Volume of 'Stray' Marriages Is Published with the Hope That It Will Prove
S T R A Y S Volume One: !'IARRIAGES Introduction This volume of 'stray' marriages is published with the hope that it will prove of some value as an additional source for the familv historian. For economic reasons, the 9rooms' names only are listed. Often people married many miles from their own parishes and sometimes also away from the parish of the spouse. Tracking down such a 'stray marriage' can involve fruitless and dishearteninq searches and may halt progress for many years. - Included here are 'strays', who were married in another parish within the county of Powys, or in another county. There are also a few non-Powys 'strays' from adjoining counties, particularly some which may be connected with Powys families. For those researchers puzzled and confused by the thought of dealing with patronymics, when looking for their Welsh ancestors, a few are to be found here and are ' indicated by an asterisk. A simple study of these few examples may help in a search for others, although it must be said, that this is not so easy when the father's name is not given. I would like to thank all those members who have helped in anyway with the compilation of this booklet. A second collection is already in progress; please· send any contributions to me.

THE CLWYD POWYS ARCHAEOLOGICAL TRUST Montgomeryshire LANDMAP Historic Landscape Aspect Technical Report CPAT Report No 804 CPAT Report No 804 Montgomeryshire LANDMAP Historic Landscape Aspect Technical Report W J Britnell and C H R Martin May 2006 Report for Powys County Council The Clwyd Powys Archaeological Trust 7a Church Street, Welshpool, Powys, SY21 7DL tel (01938) 553670, fax (01938) 552179 email [email protected] web www.cpat.org.uk EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Historic Landscape Aspect of the Montgomeryshire LANDMAP identified 102 separate aspect areas, ranging in size from 0.27 to 129.99 square kilometres and representing 12 different landscape patterns, at Level 3 in the current LANDMAP Information System handbook. The patterns represented are Irregular fieldscape (40 areas), Regular fieldscape (12 areas), Other fieldscape (6 areas), Woodland (7 areas), Marginal land (11 areas), Water & wetland (1 area), Nucleated settlement (14 areas), Non-nucleated settlement (1 area), Extractive industry (1 area), Processing/manufacturing (3 area), Designed landscape (1 area) and Recreational (1 area). Historic Landscape aspect areas were identified using a number of digital and paper data sources, verified by rapid field visiting and drawn as a digital map against a 1:10,000 OS map background attached to a database of supporting information. These digital elements and this Technical Report contain the results of the Montgomeryshire LANDMAP study and were submitted to Powys County Council and the Countryside Council for Wales on completion of the project. Montgomeryshire’s historic landscape has evolved over the course of many millennia and shows considerable variety within one of Wales’ largest historical counties.

Clive Sept 2014
CYLCHGRAWN MISOL MONTHLY MAGAZINE Medi/September 2014 50c/50p Bro Cyfeiliog a Mawddwy 1 Dear Friends, I hope you’ve all had a pleasant summer and are refreshed by the warm sunshine we’ve had – maybe not quite so warm in the last couple of weeks! In July I was fortunate enough to spend the day on Ynys Enlli – Bardsey Island. It’s a place that’s been on my “to visit” list for some time and it certainly didn’t disappoint. I love to watch and listen to the sea but to travel on the sea is not a favourite of mine and it looked a little choppy on that Monday morning! I had no need to worry, though, in the capable hands of Colin who has navigated Bardsey Sound for many years and my return trip caused far less anxiety. Our boat was escorted into the Quay on the Island by an inquisi- tive seal checking out the first visitors of the day. As I got off the boat making my way up the quay, I stopped to look back at the sea – I don’t know what I expected but what I experienced at that moment is hard to describe – a feeling I was part of some- thing good and much bigger than I have words to express. As we walked, mostly in silence, on our pilgrimage around the Island, we stopped at places along the way– the lighthouse, Maen Duw, the birdwatchers hide, the Abby ruins – taking time to pray for ourselves and others and to feel God’s presence in the wonder of creation all around us.

Montgomeryshire
MONTGOMERYSHIRE Montgomeryshire is rural Welsh county. It is bordered to the east by the English county of Shropshire, and on the other sides by the Welsh counties of Radnor, Cardigan, Merioneth and Denbigh. There was a long-established flannel industry in Welshpool and Newtown, and building of a railway in the second half of the nineteenth century stimulated further industrial development . One inspector was appointed in 1834. A police force was set up in 1841, and took over the duties of inspection in 1854. This arrangement continued until 1901, when a qualified inspector was appointed. The county was merged with Brecon and Radnor to form the new county of Powys in 1974. The ancient borough of Llanfyllin obtained a set of standards in 1826, but there are no records of inspection by the municipal authorities. Several other small towns had limited jurisdiction for certain matters, but none of them were involved in the inspection of weights and measures.
