  • Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough
    1 Town Tree Cover in Bridgend County Borough Understanding canopy cover to better plan and manage our urban trees 2 Foreword Introducing a world-first for Wales is a great pleasure, particularly as it relates to greater knowledge about the hugely valuable woodland and tree resource in our towns and cities. We are the first country in the world to have undertaken a country-wide urban canopy cover survey. The resulting evidence base set out in this supplementary county specific study for Bridgend County Borough will help all of us - from community tree interest groups to urban planners and decision-makers in local Emyr Roberts Diane McCrea authorities and our national government - to understand what we need to do to safeguard this powerful and versatile natural asset. Trees are an essential component of our urban ecosystems, delivering a range of services to help sustain life, promote well-being, and support economic benefits. They make our towns and cities more attractive to live in - encouraging inward investment, improving the energy efficiency of buildings – as well as removing air borne pollutants and connecting people with nature. They can also mitigate the extremes of climate change, helping to reduce storm water run-off and the urban heat island. Natural Resources Wales is committed to working with colleagues in the Welsh Government and in public, third and private sector organisations throughout Wales, to build on this work and promote a strategic approach to managing our existing urban trees, and to planting more where they will

    Bridgend County Borough Profile – 2018 Introduction Bridgend County Borough is located in the heart of South Wales, centered between the principality’s two main cities; Cardiff to the east and Swansea to the west. The county borough is bordered by Neath Port Talbot to the west and north, Rhondda Cynon Taff also to the north and north east, and by the Vale of Glamorgan to the east. It has an area of about 25,500 hectares and has a population of 143,400 (ONS Population estimate). Extending approximately 20km from east to west, the area encompasses the Ogmore, Garw and Llynfi valleys to the north, and bordering the Bristol Channel to the south. The main commercial centres are Bridgend and Maesteg and the seaside resort of Porthcawl. Bridgend is the largest of these towns and is the administrative centre for the area. The county borough benefits from excellent transportation infrastructure with the M4 motorway crossing the southern part of the county borough in an east-west alignment, providing speedy access to Cardiff, Swansea and the rest of South Wales and beyond. There are three motorway junctions (35 – 37) within the county borough.

    Editorial UR Autumnal Meeting will be held at Manchester on Wednesday, 16th October, at 4 p.m., in the Hall attached to Cavendish Church. Papers are expected from Professor OG. Lyon Turner, M.A., on '' Congregationalism and the Confessors of 1662" ; and from Mr. A. Peel, M.A., B.Litt., on some fruits of his researches into Elizabethan Puritanism. Our Annual Meeting was held on 8th May ; the attendance was meagre. The officers were unanimously reappointed, with thanks for past services; and the Rev. W. Pierce was associated with the secretariat, The rest of the proceedings were conversational, dealing with our future work and the best means of increasing our membership. We note with regret the decease of two of our oldest members; Rev. H. Shaw, of Urmston, who in 1901 read an instructive paper on the rise and growth of Congregationalism in Manchester ; and Mr. John Scamell, of Westbury, from whom we have more than once received interesting communications. The 250th Anniversary of the Act of Uniformity has been duly recognized by most ofthe churches which originated in the labours of the ejected ministers, and united commemorations are in pro­ spect. But it must have been felt by all who are old enough to remember the celebration of fifty years ago, that there has been no such enthusiasm as marked the Bicentenary in 1862. This, however, can excite no surprise. The Bicentenary followed close on a great religious revival ; and it was very properly used for the promotion of schemes of Church extension, which were then greatly needed. A few figures will shew how fruitful was the impulse thus generated.
