A miscellany of Contributions from OUR members ALLT-YR-YN NATURE RESERVE by Gwyneth Hawkes The Allt-yr-yn Nature Reserve was established in 1986 and encompasses an area of 32 acres. The Alltyryn House Estate, which forms the basis of the present-day reserve, was built in the middle of the 18th century. Prior to that it had been a mostly wooded area containing native trees, providing natural habitat for local wildlife species. When built, the house and estate was bounded on the south and east side by the Tredegar Estates, and in 1796, on the north-west side by the newly constructed Monmouthshire & Brecon Canal. ALLTYRYN HOUSE: HISTORY TIMELINE Alltyryn House Estate was built in the middle of the 18th century and since that time the estate and its owners have been woven into the historical fabric of Newport. Existing as it did during some turbulent times, seeing Newport develop from a small town of around 1000 inhabitants through to the present City with a population in excess of 316,300. Note: The following is a description of the estate in 1923. No doubt it had seen many improvements since the original, built around 1760. Nevertheless, it gives an idea of how grand the property was when it was first constructed.

An extensive, flat hinterland (Gwent Levels), with pastoral and arable fields up to the coastal edge. The M4 and M48 on the two Severn bridges visually dominate the area and power lines are also another major feature. Settlement is generally set back from the coast including Chepstow and Caldicot with very few houses directly adjacent, except at Sudbrook. The Severn Estuary has a strong lateral flow, a very high tidal range, is opaque with suspended solids and is a treacherous stretch of water. The estuary is a designated SSSI, with extensive inland tracts of considerable ecological variety. Views from the coastal path on bund, country park at Black Rock and the M4 and M48 roads are all important. Road views are important as the gateway views to Wales. All views include the English coast as a backdrop. Key cultural associations: Gwent Levels reclaimed landscape, extensive historic landscape and SSSIs, Severn Bridges and road and rail communications corridor. Physical Geology Triassic rocks with limited sandstone in evidence around Sudbrook.
