Site Location and Description This application is in respect of residential development at land to the south west of Garth Owen, Newtown. The indicative plans submitted with the application detail the provision of 25 dwellings on the site including four 1 bedroom flats, three self-build plots and 18 semi- detached three and four bedroomed units. Access is proposed off the U4208 known as Glyndwr and traffic calming measures are proposed in the form of speed cushions along Glyndwr, Cedewain and Hafren. Consultee Response Town Council First response No objection to the housing development. The Town Council have listened to and given consideration to residents’ concerns and wish the following to be noted please: Health and Safety during construction especially with regards to access to the site along the narrow road with on street parking. Increased traffic after construction, due to new development again along narrow access roads. Adequate parking on new development. Second response The council is pleased the research has been undertaken, notes the additional traffic information, and wishes to make the following comments: a) Construction Phase: that roads to the site need to be of a sufficiently robust standard to take modern heavy construction traffic, and that any damage is made good. 1 Page 7 b) Post Construction: the traffic figures reveal considerable traffic movement in the area, especially Plantation Lane, and the Town Council’s concerns submitted in June 2014 remain and are restated. Health and Safety during construction especially with regards to access to the site along the narrow road with on street parking. Increased traffic after construction, due to new development again along narrow access roads. Adequate parking on new development. Building Control The proposed work will require building regulations approval. Local Highway Authority First response The Highway Authority is unable to support this application without knowing the exact number of properties that are going to be constructed as the width of the approach roads will have a bearing on how many properties can be served off this type of highway hierarchy. I note from the plans submitted that there are no detailed access geometry and visibility splays in order for us to determine whether a safe means of access can be created. I appreciate the site is sloping and that significant engineering works will be required, will any of the soil be removed from the site? How is the highway surface water drainage going to be disposed? lt is noted from a site visit that there are a number of dwellings that park on the approaching estate roads as they do not have dedicated “off-street” parking facilities, and especially opposite the proposed new access. Has the developer considered providing a dedicated private car-park for the existing residents within the curtilage of this site. This would take some of the pressure of the existing streets. Additionally, there is no traffic calming along Garth-Owen, which I suspect is down to having parked cars on the existing highway. I have asked our Traffic Engineer to assess the proposal to see if traffic calming will be required as a result of this development. If so, this will need to be provided by the developer at their cost. I am unable to confirm whether adequate parking has been provided within the site as no floor plans have been produced, however I acknowledge the scheme is for outline only so these plans may not have been drawn up. It should be noted that 1 parking space is required per bedroom to accord with CSS All Wales Parking Guidelines 2008. I appreciate the site is located in a sustainable location is close to the local schools and leisure facilities, however as the site is not accessed by a bus route the majority of residents will drive to and from facilities. In view of the above the HA recommend that the application is withdrawn in its current format or REFUSED in the interests of highway safety. Second response As per my previous correspondence on this planning application, I can confirm that a Traffic study has taken place with identifies the existing and proposed traffic levels. Whilst, I appreciate the concerns of local residents. The projected extra traffic will not be detrimental to Highway Safety. However, to safeguard against the extra traffic and to control existing traffic on all of the approach roads, the developer has proposed some traffic calming features 2 Page 8 which will reinforce the requirement for motorists to drive at appropriate speeds.

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

    8 THE FAMILY OF L’ESTRANGE AND THE CONQUEST OF WALES1 The Rt Hon The Lord Crickhowell PC Abstract The L’Estrange family were important Marcher lords of Wales from the twelfth century to the Acts of Union in the sixteenth century. Originating in Brittany, the family made their home on the Welsh borders and were key landowners in Shropshire where they owned a number of castles including Knockin. This lecture looks at the service of several generations of the family to the English Crown in the thirteenth century, leading up to the death of Llywelyn ap Gruffudd in 1282. With its practice of intermarriage with noble Welsh families, the dynasty of L’Estrange exemplifies the hybrid nature of Marcher society in the Middle Ages. Two points by way of introduction: the first to explain that what follows is taken from my book, The Rivers Join.2 This was a family history written for the family. It describes how two rivers joined when Ann and I married. Among the earliest tributaries traced are those of my Prichard and Thomas ancestors in Wales at about the time of the Norman Conquest; and on my wife’s side the river representing the L’Estranges, rising in Brittany, flowing first through Norfolk and then roaring through the Marches to Wales with destructive force. My second point is to make clear that I will not repeat all the acknowledgements made in the book, except to say that I owe a huge debt of gratitude to the late Winston Guthrie Jones QC, the author of the paper which provided much of the material for this lecture.

  • Wales & the Cotswolds
    WALES & THE COTSWOLDS JULY 3 – JULY 22, 2015 | £3,199* per person Our tour includes one of the most in-depth explorations of Wales and the Welsh borderlands available: some the best of the Cotswolds; a visit to the famous Ironbridge Museum, otherwise known as the Valley of the Industrial Revolution; and finishing at Highclere Castle, better known as Downton Abbey. Our routing is always via the most picturesque and varied countryside, concentrating on Britain’s heritage wherever possible — its ruins, castles, palaces, abbeys and stately homes containing many interesting and varied collections, many of which have featured in movies and familiar TV series. The great thing about the majority of these wonderful attractions in the countryside is that they are nearly all also museums in themselves. We visit some of the loveliest Cotswold villages, with their gorgeous thatched cottages and honey-coloured stone. In addition to history, our emphasis throughout is spectacular scenery, amazingly different architecture due to both the construction periods and the use of local building materials (mostly due to the astonishingly diverse geology of Britain), and glorious gardens, so that the entire trip is a photographer’s dream. We include up to 35 different attractions with no ‘optional extras’. We stay in lovely hotels with great food, sometimes in very small places, where the emphasis is more on local charm than on North American-style modernization! INCLUDED IN THE PRICE Airport transfer for those arriving with the majority of the group • Accommodation and transportation • Breakfasts and dinners as specified • Admission to all attractions as per the detailed itinerary • Escort throughout The tour is escorted by Maggie Rodgers who has taught Travel courses for Continuing Education in Vancouver, Surrey and White Rock, British Columbia, for several years.

    Learning Report Study Visit to Wales and England 20-24 May 2019 1 Learning Report ǀ UK Study Visit ǀ 20-24 May 2019 Overview of the Study Visit The second Innocastle Study Visit took place in Wales and England from 20-24 May 2019. It was organised by the National Trust with support from the International National Trusts Organisation (INTO) and included four Site Visits, a Thematic Seminar, Partner Meeting and Peer Reviews. The full Programme can be found in Appendix 1. The first day (21 May) began with a Partner Meeting where Partners and Stakeholders presented some of the issues they would like to address in their Action Plans, which were discussed with the Stakeholders present. After lunch, the group had a tour of the National Trust’s Powis Castle grounds with the Head Gardener, David Swanton, and then of the Castle itself with House Stewards, Alex Turrell and Emma Marshall. This was followed by two workshop groups on volunteering and business planning given by NT Powis Castle staff. On 22 May the group visited the privately owned Eastnor Castle, home of James Hervey-Bathurst who gave a fascinating overview of his business minded approach to family estate. From Eastnor the group travelled to the National Trust’s Croft Castle where they were briefed by the Operations Manager, Ian Grafton. A Peer Review took place in the evening. The third day was spent in Hay-on-Wye. First, discussing and then visiting the Castle restoration works site with Managing Director of the Hay Castle Trust, Nancy Lavin.
