  • Goldsland Caves Research Project – Fieldwork During 2007
    Excavations in Goldsland Wood, Wenvoe, Vale of Glamorgan 2005-2007 Draft Interim Report Stephen Aldhouse-Green and Rick Peterson Archaeology School of Forensic and Investigative Sciences University of Central Lancashire 2 Introduction Goldsland Wood is an area of deciduous woodland in the parish of Wenvoe on the Vale of Glamorgan. The wood grows on a low limestone ridge running approximately east-west for 2.5 km. Crossing the east end of the ridge are two steep-sided and narrow valleys running north to south: Cwm Slatter and Cwm George. Between 2005 and 2007 the Goldsland Caves Research Project investigated deposits outside small caves and rock-shelters in both these valleys (figure 1). At Wolf Cave (Site A, NGR ST 1108 7182) in Cwm Slatter and George Rock Shelter (Site G, NGR ST 1121 7151) in Cwm George disarticulated human remains associated with Neolithic pottery and some worked stone were discovered. At Site B (NGR ST 1105 7179) in Cwm Slatter there were lithics and Early Bronze Age pottery associated with animal bone. Radiocarbon dates on human bone show Early Neolithic activity at George Rock Shelter and Early Bronze Age and early medieval activity at Wolf Cave. Figure 1: location map and detail of excavated areas in Goldsland Wood With a very few exceptions, all the archaeological deposits at Goldsland seem to be the result of prehistoric people carrying out ritual activities in an unaltered natural setting – particularly in the limestone scree deposits within and just outside caves. These scree deposits, whether they formed quickly or slowly in geological terms, would generally have changed very slowly during individual human life-spans.

  • Local Development Plan 2011- 2026 Local Development Plan Written Statement June 2017 Foreword
    Vale of Glamorgan Local Development Plan 2011- 2026 Local Development Plan Written Statement June 2017 Foreword I am pleased to introduce the Local Development Plan which provides a framework for sustainable development within the Vale of Glamorgan up to 2026. It is an extremely important Policy document that will guide the growth of the Vale of Glamorgan over a fifteen year period and identifies the infrastructure needs of our communities in terms of employment, facilities and services needed to support that growth. In setting this framework for the future development of the Vale of Glamorgan, we have been mindful of the need to regenerate and support our communities and in doing so the Plan seeks to achieve a balance between economic growth, social cohesion and environmental impact. Wherever possible the Plan’s emphasis is on re-using previously developed land and minimising the need to develop on green fields. Nowhere is this more apparent than in Barry where the emphasis is very much on the continued regeneration of the Waterfront. In addition, we have ensured that sufficient emphasis is being placed on providing for an appropriate level of growth in other communities throughout the Vale thereby ensuring their long term sustainability and vitality. In reading the document you will see that the evidence base that has informed the Plan and its policies is wide ranging and robust. I am particularly pleased that in progressing this Plan we have been able to comprehensively identify and allocate land for the services and facilities that will be needed to support additional residential and employment growth during the Plan period.
