The evaluation was required prior to the determination of the planning permission. The evaluation was undertaken in accordance with a written scheme of investigation (WSI), which was produced in response to advice given by Jenny Emmett, Planning Archaeologist, Gwynedd Archaeological Trust acting as the archaeological planning advisor on behalf of Gwynedd Council. Archaeological remains were concentrated in the northwest part of the site and comprised a curvilinear feature of possible prehistoric date, a linear feature and a pit. Further activity was represented by ditches, which may have been former field boundaries. These could be post- medieval and could match the boundaries on the First edition Ordnance Survey County Series map of 1889.

  • Dwyfor Cluster Network Action Plan V2 Redacted Version
    Cluster Network Action Plan 2015-16 (second year of the Cluster Network Development Programme) Dwyfor Cluster v1 SR The Cluster Network 1 Development Programme supports GP Practices to work to collaborate to: • Understand local health needs and priorities. • Develop an agreed Cluster Network Action Plan linked to elements of the individual Practice Development Plans. • Work with partners to improve the coordination of care and the integration of health and social care. • Work with local communities and networks to reduce health inequalities. The Action Plan should be a simple, dynamic document and in line with CND 002W guidance. The Plan should include: - • Objectives that can be delivered independently by the network to improve patient care and to ensure the sustainability and modernisation of services. • Objectives for delivery through partnership working • Issues for discussion with the Health Board For each objective there should be specific, measureable actions with a clear timescale for delivery. Cluster Action Plans should compliment individual Practice Development Plans, tackling issues that cannot be managed at an individual practice level or challenges that can be more effectively and efficiently delivered through collaborative action. 1 A GP cluster network is defined as a cluster or group of GP practices within the Local Health Board’s area of operation as previously designated for QOF QP purposes 1 To understand the needs of the population served by the Cluster Network The Cluster Profile provides a summary of key issues. Local Public Health Teams can provide additional analysis and support. Consider local rates of smoking, alcohol, healthy diet and exercise – what role do Cluster practices play and who are local partners.
