    Protecting the Water Vole Conservation efforts in the Clwydian Range Where the hills meet the sea Countryside a stone’s throw away from the coast A Guide to the Clwydian Range Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) Welcome to ‘Capturing the Clwydian Range’ Welcome to the latest edition of Capturing the Clwydian Range, the definitive guide for those looking to learn more about the history, attractions and beauty of the Clwydian Range Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). The AONB stretches from its northern edge at Prestatyn, down the spine of Flintshire and Denbighshire to the outskirts of Ruthin and Mold, taking in numerous countryside communities that all add a unique quality to the Clwydian Range. The hills can be seen from far and wide, from the North West of Wales and from the Cheshire Plains and the populated areas of Wirral and Merseyside. It’s not a surprise that over half a million of visitors make the journey to the Clwydian Range for that special day out or a holiday in one of Wales’ most naturally scenic areas. There are many organisations involved in managing and protecting the Clwydian Range for future generations. The hills are steeped in history, rich geology and wildlife which needs protecting. This cannot be done without the support of local landowners, businesses, visitors and volunteers. So what is there to do and see in the Clwydian Range? For a start there are country parks at Loggerheads and Moel Famau that offer miles upon miles of interesting walks, activities for the whole family and contents opportunities for volunteering.

    Llanasa Road, Gwespyr, Flintshire, CH8 9LU Telephone: 01745 270 156 ​ Email: [email protected] ​ Introduction The following Design and Access Statement should be read in support of the application for planning consent for the change of use of land for siting of 3 Pods with associated ensuite facilities and car parking area on land at School House, Llanasa Rd, Gwespr, Holywell, CH8 9LU. The site is in a clearing within a small woodland forming part of a larger paddock which is to the side and far corner from the entrance and drive to School House. The Paddock is sited directly off Llanasa Road and accessed via the drive to School House. The proposal for the siting of the 3 Pods is in the far corner of the Paddock and woodland. It is small in scale but high in quality. The proposal is sited and designed to ensure a discreet and unobtrusive appearance in the setting. This is a site that respects the rural locality in terms of scale, does not give rise to harming of the landscape and is focused on the natural habitat, biodiversity and environment. The proposal put forward is marketed to the recreational activity hobbyist with opportunities for cycling, walking and twitching. In doing so the site offers an approach that differs from that of other local holiday businesses and provides new and enriched opportunity for the area. It takes account of the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Planning Guidance, which is underpinned by national planning policies in Wales. (PPW 2016) As required by the Town and Country Planning (Development Procedure) (Wales) Order 2012 the statement aims to address the following matters: ● The policy and approach adopted as to access and how policies relating to access in the development plan have been taken into account; ● How any specific issues which might affect access to the development have been addressed.

The LAG still has just under £500,000 which can support community-led initiatives in rural Flintshire. “Projects supported to date include tourism initiatives such as using old telephone kiosks as tourist information points, developing digital apps across key tourism locations in the county and support towards the Clwydian Range and Dee valley Dark Skies initiatives. Other projects have provided support for business networks such as the North East Wales Food and Drink forum and the Mold business networks, whilst support has also been provided for community facilities such as development of the Trelogan Village hall and exploring community use of Capel Bethesda in Mold” said Sue. Did you Know? There is currently just under £500,000 available for projects in rural Flintshire, if you have an idea for a project which could benefit your community, please contact Cadwyn Clwyd on 01490 340500 or [email protected] Stay, Eat, Do… A brand new tourism project aimed at boosting the rural economy by encouraging visitors to one of Wales’s most beautiful regions to make more of their stays has been launched in North East Wales.
