This assessment reviewed information held by the regional Historic Environment Record (HER), the National Monuments Record (NMR) and the Portable Antiquities Scheme, as well as cartographic, photographic and other documentary sources. A site visit was made in August 2015. No designated historic landscape areas, Listed Buildings or Scheduled Ancient Monuments lie within the proposed development area. A single Portable Antiquity Scheme find spot is located within the development area. No new sites were discovered during this desk based assessment. A total of five Scheduled Ancient Monuments, two Listed Buildings and sections of two Roman roads lie within the study area. The proposed development is considered to have a negligible impact on the Scheduled Ancient Monuments and listed buildings within the study area. It is considered that the proposed development will not adversely affect the heritage significance of the designated assets. The regional Historic Environment Record lists 52 non‐designated archaeological sites within the study area. They are all located outside of the development area. The majority of the archaeological sites, both designated and undesignated, are located a minimum of 1km away from the development area boundaries. The majority of the structural sites are located in the neighbouring village of Castleton and the city of Newport. There is a minor indirect visual impact on the nearest Scheduled Ancient Monument (The Mount: Pen‐y‐lan MM133). The development area occupies a location that forms part of a landscape occupied consistently from the prehistoric period, to modern times. This is attested by the prehistoric features such as Neolithic long barrows, Iron Age Hill forts, Roman villas and roads and a well‐documented medieval and post medieval park located within the study area. Suitable mitigation to safeguard potential archaeological resource within the development area would be the provision of an archaeological watching brief during all intrusive groundworks. 3 ARCHAEOLOGY WALES LTD, RHOS HELYG, CWM BELAN, LLANIDLOES, POWYS SY18 6QF 1. Introduction 1.1 Archaeology Wales were commissioned by Asbri Planning Ltd to undertake a desk‐based assessment to inform on the impact on the archaeological resource by the proposed solar farm within the designated study area. The assessment forms the basis of the current report and was written in accordance with the Specification (Hart 2015) agreed to by the archaeological advisors

  • IV. the Cantrefs of Morgannwg
    ; THE TRIBAL DIVISIONS OF WALES, 273 Garth Bryngi is Dewi's honourable hill, CHAP. And Trallwng Cynfyn above the meadows VIII. Llanfaes the lofty—no breath of war shall touch it, No host shall disturb the churchmen of Llywel.^si It may not be amiss to recall the fact that these posses- sions of St. David's brought here in the twelfth century, to re- side at Llandduw as Archdeacon of Brecon, a scholar of Penfro who did much to preserve for future ages the traditions of his adopted country. Giraldus will not admit the claim of any region in Wales to rival his beloved Dyfed, but he is nevertheless hearty in his commendation of the sheltered vales, the teeming rivers and the well-stocked pastures of Brycheiniog.^^^ IV. The Cantrefs of Morgannwg. The well-sunned plains which, from the mouth of the Tawe to that of the Wye, skirt the northern shore of the Bristol Channel enjoy a mild and genial climate and have from the earliest times been the seat of important settlements. Roman civilisation gained a firm foothold in the district, as may be seen from its remains at Cardiff, Caerleon and Caerwent. Monastic centres of the first rank were established here, at Llanilltud, Llancarfan and Llandaff, during the age of early Christian en- thusiasm. Politically, too, the region stood apart from the rest of South Wales, in virtue, it may be, of the strength of the old Silurian traditions, and it maintained, through many vicissitudes, its independence under its own princes until the eve of the Norman Conquest.

  • A Study Into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of Tredegar House
    A Study into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of INTRODUCTION Tredegar House in the late-Seventeenth Century There are many reasons why people wanted to own material goods, some practical, some financial, some psychological. This makes it necessary to explore social as well as economic factors. 1 Becky Gingell As Lorna Weatherill’s comments above, there are a variety of ways in which the study of material culture can be examined, as well as a number of reasons for such an investigation. The study of material culture can provide a vivid insight into the past, and a vast amount can be discovered about the individuals who owned the household goods. The ability to purchase new items was obviously determined by the person’s financial background and whether they were a spendthrift by nature, or perhaps less inclined to use their wealth, ranging from practical necessities of the household to the accumulation of personal niceties, to the more fundamental psychological reasons for owning such goods – desire and emulation. The Morgan family of Tredegar has had a long association with the county of Monmouthshire dating as far back as the fifteenth century and finally ending in the twentieth century when the house was finally sold. Each member of the Morgan family was famous during their lifetime and several grew to be significant entrepreneurs, while others became renowned for their eccentric behaviour. What this study will concentrate upon is the ownership of Tredegar House during the late-seventeenth century and the way in which the estate was run coinciding with the material culture of the owners during this period.
