    17th Programme – Swansea Ramblers We offer short & long walks all year around and welcome new walkers to try a walk with us. 1 Front Cover Photograph: Table Mountain with view of Sugar Loaf v14 2 Swansea Ramblers’ membership benefits & events We have lots of walks and other events during the year so we thought you may like to see at a glance the sort of things you can do as a member of Swansea Ramblers: Programme of walks: We have long, medium & short walks to suit most tastes. The summer programme runs from April to September and the winter programme covers October to March. The programme is emailed & posted to members. Should you require an additional programme, this can be printed by going to our website. Evening walks: These are about 2-3 miles and we normally provide these in the summer. Monday Short walks: We also provide occasional 2-3 mile daytime walks as an introduction to walking, usually on a Monday. Saturday walks: We have a Saturday walk every week that is no more than 6 miles in length and these are a great way to begin exploring the countryside. Occasionally, in addition to the shorter walk, we may also provide a longer walk. Sunday walks: These alternate every other week between longer, harder walking for the more experienced walker and a medium walk which offers the next step up from the Saturday walks. Weekday walks: These take place on different days and can vary in length. Most are published in advance but we also have extra weekday walks at short notice.

  • The Dandie Dinmont Terrier
    www.davesbits.couk INTRODUCTION Poet Lauriat I’ll never become But composing this book has been such fun So don’t criticise my effort at rhyme Which over the years has taken much time. It’s a memory of me for you to browse To pass away your leisure hours! SPRING WALK I leave the house to start on my round And take the path along the Oat Ground, Passed the field where the children are playing Being pushed on the swings gently swaying. I take the lane down to Holy Well See the hawthorn buds beginning to swell. Primroses bloom on the banks down this lane, ‘Neath the hedges cut by machine again. Little birds searching for somewhere to nest Keep checking to see which side is best. Left passed the ponies asleep in the sun And the chickens are scratching in their run. The blackthorn’s in flower, winter’s not over yet I hope its rain and not snow that we get. I follow this lane which runs by the stream Note the leaves on the willow turning green. Under the tunnel of overgrown trees Where the catkins are swaying in the breeze. An old yew tree leans where vegetables grow And roses are pruned for their summer show. Under two huge poplars which come into view Spring flowers form a carpet of yellow and blue. The path crosses the stream and goes on beyond Where the breeze causes ripples upon a pond. The cattle in the field are chewing the cud The coot’s on her nest and ducks in the mud.

  • River Ogwen Wednesday June 20Th 2018
    RRC Site Visit Series River Ogwen Wednesday June 20th 2018 Join us on the Afon Ogwen in Snowdonia to visit a local hydropower scheme along with a large scale restoration of the river in the Nant Ffrancon Morning - Community Hydropower Scheme This Hydro Ogwen scheme will utilise the water flowing in the Afon Ogwen using an intake weir across the channel. This is a 100kW scheme on the river above the waterfalls below Pont Ogwen, generating approximately 500,000Kwh per year. More information Afternoon - River Ogwen The Ogwen is in a mountainous location of Snowdonia below Llyn Ogwen (Lake Ogwen), and flows northwards through the Nant Francon valley. During the 1960s the river was dredged over a 4km length to reduce the frequency of flooding over the valley floor to improve livestock grazing. Over the following 30 years the river flushed virtually all bed gravels through the system and scoured the river bed and banks. The reach became severely degraded, the once thriving salmon fishery declined and flooding was still troublesome to farmers. In the late 1990s, Environment Agency Wales carried out a large scale restoration project which involved raising the level of the riverbed, re-creating an island and creating four boulder cascades and pool and riffle sequences. Some runs of gravel were introduced and shoals were created on the inside of bends. View RiverWiki case study Programme and Information The visit is FREE to RRC members. If space is available, non-members are welcome to attend at a cost of £30. Places will be allocated on a first come, first served basis.

This assessment was undertaken in accordance with Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) guidelines (Defra, 2006a). Because of the large number of watercourses within the study area a screening exercise was carried out which identified all significant watercourses within the study area and determined whether these should be carried through to the Appendix F assessment. The screening exercise identified that the following watercourses should be subjected to the full Appendix F assessment: .
