Cashflow forecasts – Carningli Sylvan land-based enterprises Page 3 of 76 1. Summary This management plan provides a framework for the management of the Carningli eco-smallholding under the Welsh ‘One Planet Development’ policy. It adopts the format as suggested in the One Planet Development Practice Guidance (TAN6, Oct 2012), with reference to the Supplementary Planning Guidance to the Local Development Plan for the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park (re Policy 47) provided in Chapter 2. This management plan describes the holding’s topography, ecology and context. It provides a comprehensive breakdown of my current and future consumption patterns, and describes how I will grow/ produce more than 30% of my own food from the land. It details how I will meet my minimum income requirements from land-based enterprises and how I see these developing over time. I explain how I will meet my water, energy and waste needs in accordance with the planning policy guidance, and explores my potential impact on the local and wider community. Page 4 of 76 2. Planning Context Pembrokeshire Coast National Park has its own Low Impact Development – Making a positive contribution policy with Supplementary Planning Guidance (June 2013).

Page 6 of 76 3. Baseline (Please refer to the appendices for full reports as referred to below. Where the full reports have not been included in the appendices, sources are shown). Location: The site is located in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park just south of the small town of Newport. The site ranges from 108 to 150 meters above sea level, approximately mid way between the coastal plain and Carningli summit. It slopes toward the sea facing north. A detailed contour map is included in the Appendices. Area and Shape: The site covers 5.5 acres of predominantly pasture adjacent to Castle Hill, Newport, Pembrokeshire, and comprises of 5 irregularly shaped small fields. Boundaries: To the south and east (and a little to the west) the site adjoins Carningli common (with the exception of the south-eastern corner which adjoins further small fields) and a dry stone wall separates the improved fields from the unimproved pasture and scrub on the common. To the west the site is bordered by pockets of woodland and overgrown hedgerows associated with the neighbouring ‘Stone Hill’ residence – these follow the stream gully and road access. Context Sheep have been grazing the fields over the last few years which has improved the quality of the grass and soil. Some planting and horticultural activities have been initiated in anticipation of a future mixed land use as described herein. Carningli common, a SSSI, is managed as rough pasture, as are the fields to the south of the site. The small cluster of 3 fields to the north-east of the site are under mixed use – horticulture, agroforestry and agriculture. Tenure and Services I own the site as a freehold and it has no mains services. Access: Vehicular and pedestrian access is via an existing entranceway on the northern boundary - via the Castle Hill road. Currently the entranceway onto the site includes a small parking area. Audit: Physical The site lies within the Mynydd Dinas - Mynydd Carningli Geological Landscape which is classified as Mountain and upland valley/Undulating upland terrain and dissected plateau/Other (Level 3). The site is classified as grade 4 under the Agricultural Land Classification system: Grade 4 - poor quality agricultural land Land with severe limitations which significantly restrict the range of crops and/or level of yields. It is mainly suited to grass with occasional arable crops (e.g. cereals and Page 7 of 76 forage crops) the yields of which are variable. In moist climates, yields of grass may be moderate to high but there may be difficulties in utilisation. The grade also includes very droughty arable land. Source: http://archive.defra.gov.uk/foodfarm/landmanage/land-use/documents/alc-guidelines- 1988.pdf Mynydd Dinas - Mynydd Carningli LANDMAP Geological Landscape PMBRKGL039 This assessment considers the geological landscape of high value (Prominent massif with key periglacial features to N W of more famous Preseli Mountains massif) and in good condition. It describes the area as: Prominent massif N W of the Preseli Mountains and rising to 337 m. Forms a broadly E -W ridge of coalescing knolls with rocky peaks or tors surrounded by rock-strewn slopes. Slopes away rapidly northwards towards the coast forming an escarpment. To S of ridge slopes more gently towards Cwm Gwaun, but locally with steeper upper-most section around tors. Common blocks on slopes often concentrated in broad runs. Bedrock geology includes Ordovician volcanic rocks and slates with some igneous intrusions, the latter as in the Preseli Mountains. Surface features are dominantly periglacial, however (Quaternary, Pleistocene). Audit: Biodiversity An ecology survey has been undertaken for the site and is included in the Appendices. It states that… ‘Within the site four main habitat types were identified; semi-improved pasture (phase 1 code B6), species-rich hedgerow/wall (J2.2.1/J2.5)) and a stream (G2.2). The semi- improved grassland also contains a flush and an area of rush pasture. Hedgerows and streams are both listed in section 42 NERC act 2006 as priority habitats, and are considered to be of significant conservation value. In addition the network of old dry stone walls and ruins are species-rich and hold significant biodiversity.’ There is also a LANDMAP Landscape Habitat assessment for this area: N.

  • Camping in Utopia Dazzle, Silence and Activist Futures
    Abstract An activist future is my focus, this future is the planned Lammas ecovillage, whose planning application was recently rejected (September 2008), one in a long series of rejections of this application by their local planning authority, despite the introduction of a low-impact policy to the county. It is therefore still an uncertain future and one in-process. Despite its uncertain nature it has a presence in the everyday practices of those seeking to create it. These presences take the form of utopian and dystopian futures that the prospective residents of the ecovillage imagine and enact. It is these manifestations, of the Lammas futures in the present, which I have sort to unearth, using a traditional group of research method which some have argued are inappropriate to such unusual and indefinite subject matter (e.g. Law, 2004). While I contradict Law in this sense I also seek to shed light on his states of ‘dazzle’ and ‘silence’ in relation to my research, which Law argues are characteristic of the research process. I will argue that conventional methods can be used to research the unusual and indefinite such as the ways in which the future manifests itself in the present. But that perhaps there are other futures which were not and could not be revealed by the methods I utilised, this is therefore a space which future research could explore. I also argue that to truly change the way we do methods, which Law argues for, we must further unpick and unravel the research process including exploring the states of ‘dazzle’ and ‘silence’.

  • Making Connections: the Narratives of Motivation for Moving to an Eco-Community
    Making Connections: the Narratives of Motivation for Moving to an Eco-community Penny Clark Submitted for the degree of Master of Science in Social Research Methods Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences University of Surrey September 2017 © Penny Clark 2 Abstract This research aims to explore and analyse the narratives that people form for their motivations for moving to an eco-community, in particular looking at how they present and interconnect their life circumstances, motivations and values, and how this informs a sense of identity. Currently, no other research contextualises perceived motivations for moving to an eco-community into a holistic narrative, so this dissertation offers a novel contribution to the body of research on eco- communities. This research adopts an interpretative, qualitative and narrative approach. Using purposive and convenience sampling, 23 participants from three eco-communities took part in face-to-face semi- structured interviews. Data was transcribed and then analysed using a mixture of content and thematic analysis. It was found that, although participants’ life experiences were diverse, there were clear commonalities which formed a fairly consistent narrative. Participants framed their lives prior to living in an eco-community as “alternative”, picking out the following as significant biographical details: unusual upbringings or lifestyles, travel, and a childhood in close contact with nature, or within a community which grew food. Participants identified mainstream society as deeply flawed, and in contrast depicted eco-communities as spaces which offered a remedy to those flaws. Their perceived motivations for moving to an eco-community were varied, but centred around a desire to connect with other people through community living, and a desire to feel a greater connection with the land.

    58 Pembrokeshire Coast National Park LCA 23 - NEWPORT LCA 23 Location, Context and Physical Characteristics This small LCA is founded upon the built-up area of the attractive and popular coastal town of Newport for the Map Notation: most part, but also straddles the estuary mouth of the Afon Nyfer to include the beach and land on the eastern side of the Newport Sands. This is a settlement with a long history and is another excellent example within the National National Park Park of a planned Medieval village site, with a number of surviving typical features. The coast provides a strong Boundary sense of place and the LCA straddles the estuary of the Afon Nyfer, reflecting the strong cultural association of the village with the opposite bank. LCA Boundary Visual and Sensory Characteristics This traditional small coastal town is located on the southern edge of the Newport estuary, at the head of Newport LCA Boundary Bay, with attractive views of coastal cliffs across the mouth of the estuary to the north and inland to the dominating defined by the high ground of Mynydd Carningli. Its strong natural setting contributes greatly to the sense of place. The im- National Park portance of the overlapping effect of trees, woodland and hedgebanks within the area create the feel of a town in a woodland when viewed from the north east across the estuary - a unique feature in the coastal context of this part Boundary of the National Park. Vegetation and Habitat Characteristics Primarily, a built-up area dominated by housing with areas of amenity grassland, semi-improved grassland and an extensive sandy inter-tidal area.

PURPOSE OF REPORT 1.1 To update members of the Panel on the site visit to Lammas Eco Village, and to seek the views of the Panel on the recommendation to discuss the value of further work with stakeholders regarding One Planet Development in the county borough. 2. SUMMARY 2.1 In Nov 2014 SDAP received a report on Technical Advice Note 6 "One Planet Development", having been the first Planning Authority in Wales to approve an application under this legislation. 2.2 The Panel requested a visit to the Lammas Ecovillage in Pembrokeshire to further consider the potential regeneration opportunities offered by one planet developments. The visit was held on the 4th August 2015 2.3 The Authority has taken a proactive approach one planet developments by including one planet developments as one of the identified exceptions to the settlement boundary policy in the draft replacement Local Development Plan. 2.4 At this stage it is not clear how much demand there would be for a Lammas type development in Caerphilly. It is recommended that officers discuss, with stakeholders, potential demand for one planet developments in the county borough to assess the value in further work. 3. LINKS TO STRATEGY 3.1 The Planning Policy Wales, Technical Advice Note 6, “One Planet Development, Planning for Sustainable Rural Communities” links to the following strategies: Caerphilly Local Development Plan “Living Better, Using Less”, Sustainable Development Strategy, 2008. “Caerphilly Delivers” Single Integrated Plan, 2013 – 2017 1 4.
