Blaen Glasgwm Ucha
1 NORTH WEST WALES DENDROCHRONOLOGY PROJECT DATING OLD WELSH HOUSES - CONWY Blaen Glasgwm Ucha Penmachno, Bettws-y-Coed, Conwy Researched and written by Frances Richardson and Gill. Jones © Crown copyright: Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales: Dating Old Welsh Houses: North West Wales Dendrochronology Project 2 Blaen y Glasgwm Uchaf Penmachno Conwy NGR 276617, 349464 N.T. (620) Grade II R.C.A.H.M.W. survey by A.Murphey 6/12/83 (contains several photographs) Description Cottage with cruck roof, probably not later than the 16th century, with a small modern extension to the E. in the same line; built of uncoursed rubble on a boulder foundation, mostly limewashed or roughcast, with modern roof coverings. The former entrance in the W. half of the n. front has been converted into a window. The other windows, though fitted with modern lintels and sills, are probably original, including a small window in the E. gable. A central fireplace with cambered beam divides the interior into two rooms. A central fireplace with cambered beam divides the interior into two rooms. There is a couple of cruck form in each room, that at the W being the better preserved; starting 3'6” from the floor, it is 1'8” deep at the elbow. The attic floor, partition and stairs here are modern, but probably replace an earlier loft to which the window in the E. gable belonged. 1Wynn Papers, No.1499 (before 1627). This and the cruck roof suggest that the 17th century date shown on the plan may be too late. -

OSWALD ROAD, OSWESTRY, 1878. PREFACE F all the works which have been written relating to the general or family history O of North Wales, none have been for centuries more esteemed than the History of the Gwydir Family. The Hon. Daines Barrington, in his preface to his first edition of the work, published in 1770, has well said, "The MS. hath, for above.a cent~ry, been so prized in North Wales, that many in those parts have thought it worth while to make fair and complete transcripts of it." Of these transcripts the earliest known to exist is one in the Library at Brogyntyn. It was probably written within 45 years of the death of the author; but besides that, it contains a great number of notes and additions of nearly the same date, which have never yet appeared in print. The History of the Gwydir Family has been thrice published. The first editiun, edited by the Hon. Daines Barrington, issued from the press in 1770. The second was published in Mr. -
Barber & Gallon, 2020
Bulletin of the British Myriapod & Isopod Group Volume 32 (2020) Upland centipedes in North Wales with a review of the Welsh Chilopoda Anthony D. Barber1 and Richard Gallon2 1 7 Greenfield Drive, Ivybridge, Devon, PL21 0UG. Email: [email protected] 2 23a Roumania Crescent, Llandudno, North Wales, LL30 1UP. Email: [email protected] Abstract Since Eason’s (1957) paper on centipedes from Carnarvonshire there has been an accumulation of centipede records from various parts of Wales but relatively few are from upland areas. Recent records from Snowdonia included several species, including Lithobius (Monotarsobius) curtipes, from locations up to around 1,000m. We present a review of centipedes recorded from the 13 Welsh vice-counties which includes 41 species, 4 of which are from buildings or heated greenhouses, 4 apparently obligate halophiles from coastal sites and one doubtful. Wales has a variety of types of habitat including both lowland and montane rural areas and urban/industrial/post-industrial locations which no doubt contributes to the diversity of its chilopod fauna. Introduction The centipede Lithobius curtipes is not known in Britain from large numbers of past records, indeed in his Cotteswold paper of 1953, E.H. Eason (Eason, 1953) had referred to his record from Kildanes Scrubs, Gloucestershire in 1952 as only the third British record. The finding of it by RG at around 1,000m in Snowdonia, along with Lithobius variegatus and Strigamia acuminata at similar heights, prompted us to look at the occurrence of upland centipedes in North Wales and in Wales in general and to review the species recorded from the principality. -

National Landscape Character 31/03/2014 NLCA07 CONWY VALLEY Dyffryn Conwy – disgrifiad cryno Dyma ddyffryn afon lanwol hwyaf Cymru, sydd, i bob diben, yn ffin rhwng gogledd- orllewin a gogledd-ddwyrain y wlad. Y mae’n dilyn dyffryn rhewlifol, dwfn sy’n canlyn ffawt daearegol, ac y mae ganddi orlifdiroedd sylweddol ac aber helaeth. Ceir yn ei blaenau ymdeimlad cryf o gyfyngu gan dir uwch, yn enwedig llethrau coediog, serth Eryri yn y gorllewin, o ble mae sawl nant yn byrlymu i lawr ceunentydd. Erbyn ei rhan ganol, fodd bynnag, mae’n ymddolennu’n dawel heibio i ddolydd gleision, gan gynnwys ystâd enwog Bodnant, sydd a’i gerddi’n denu ymwelwyr lawer. Mae ei haber yn wahanol eto, yn brysur â chychod, gyda thref hanesyddol Conwy a’i chastell trawiadol Eingl-normanaidd (Safle treftadaeth y Byd) yn y gorllewin, a thref fwy cyfoes Deganwy yn y dwyrain. Er yn cynnwys trefi Conwy a Llanrwst, a sawl pentref mawr a mân, cymeriad gwledig iawn sydd i’r fro hon. Mae’r gwrychoedd trwchus y dolydd gleision a chefndir trawiadol y mynyddoedd yn cyfuno yn ddelwedd gymharol ddiddos, ddarluniadwy. © Crown copyright and database rights 2013 Ordnance Survey 100019741 www.naturalresources .wales NLCA07 Conwy Valley - Page 1 of 9 Summary description This is the valley of Wales’ longest tidal river, whose valley effectively forms the border between the north-east and the north-west of Wales. It follows a deep, fault-guided, glacial valley and contains significant flood plain and estuary areas. The upper (southern-most) section has a strong sense of containment by rising land, especially from the steep wooded slopes of Snowdonia to the west, from which a number of small rivers issue down tumbling gorges. -
