  • Gaeaf 2020 Winter
    NEWYDDION DINAS TYDDEWI ST DAVIDS CITY NEWS Gaeaf 2020 Winter Mayor’s Letter and Christmas Greetings As this is my first letter, I would like to thank the Councillors for electing me as the Mayor with my wife Sylvia as Mayoress of St Davids City Council, supported by Councillor Alan York as the Deputy Mayor. I will endeavour to serve the local community during this unprecedented time to the best of my ability. I also take this opportunity to thank my predecessor, Cllr Mike Chant and Mayoress Sue Chant for all the valuable community work they did and contributed to over the last two years. For those who do not know me, my formal Sikh name is Balbir Singh Sehmi, but I am known as Bira Sehmi. I was born in Nairobi, Kenya (pioneering Sikh family in East Africa last century). I was educated in Nairobi and London. I have worked in various well-known international architects’ practices in London, Surrey, and Hampshire. My wife is a local born farmer’s daughter (the late Perkin and Enid Jones) and I have been coming to St Davids since mid 1960’s. We have been full time residents since 2010 and I was elected as a City Councillor in May 2017. I am a committee member of St Davids Community Forum, Memory Cafe, Friends of Oriel y Parc and St Davids Historical Society. My interests are cooking, cricket and spiritual healing. Well what a year it has turned out be. This pandemic has affected us all in one way or another. During this pandemic, the local community has shown its strength and agility in assisting those who needed the most help in whichever way they could with their generous donations.

  • St Brides Bay Coastal Waters North Area Name
    Seascape Character Area Description Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Seascape Character Assessment No: 20 Seascape Character St Brides Bay coastal waters north Area Name: Looking west from near Caerfai to Ramsey Island in distance East from near Dinas Fach East from Caerfai Bay Solva harbour 20-1 Supplementary Planning Guidance: Seascape Character Assessment December 2013 Seascape Character Area Description Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Seascape Character Assessment Summary Description The north coast of St Brides Bay has a coastline of jagged cliffs and promontories and small sheltered bays and inlets with some offshore islands and rocks. There are panoramic views from many headlands, contrasting with the narrow sheltered wooded valleys and inlets and the gentle pastoral plateau hinterland. The sea area is relatively exposed to southerly winds but there is shelter in several locations. It includes visitor honeypots such as Solva and lies close to the cathedral city of St David's. Key Characteristics Indented jagged cliffs, small promontory headlands, islets, and bays with narrow inlets with semi-natural heathland and coastal grass vegetation with a series of national nature conservation designations. Gently sloping plateau hinterland with incised valleys and farmland of mainly pasture with some arable. Dispersed farmsteads with popular traditional village of Solva in a wooded steep sided inlet but new development extends up onto the plateau. Caravan parks are visible near the coast in several locations. The A487 runs close to and parallel with the coast. The sea is relatively exposed to southerly winds, with some wave disturbance near the coastal edge, but affords shelter to northerlies. Drying or submerged rocks are shipping hazards.

  • The History of Twr Y Felin Hotel
    The History of Twr y Felin Hotel Excerpt from the Twr y Felin History and Guide to St Davids “The windmill at St Davids was erected in the year 1806, by an old resident, George Llewellyn of "Foxhole," Tygwyn (on the shores of Whitesands Bay), assisted by his two sons, John and Henry, who were carpenters. Of the father, who was known to have, in his time, done wrecking extensively, it was said: "He got his money on the water, and invested it on the wind." The windmill, as erected by "Shors" Llewellyn, was comparatively frail, and lacking in the strength necessary to withstand the terrible N.W. storms, the result being that accidents were not only frequent but the damage done was often very considerable. At last, a storm of unusual violence upset the whole roof, wings and sails into the adjoining field. This so daunted the young brothers that they died premature deaths of disappointment. Whilst in this condition the mill was bought by Mr George Williams, of "The Old Shop," a pious, and much respected merchant, many of whose descendants still reside within the city. A new and stronger top and wings having been built, after a little time the "music of the mill" was renewed. It is said of Mr Williams that he never neglected family worship either morning or evening. One evening however, whilst entertaining two preachers "from the north," conversation having continued to a late hour in the night, family worship upon this occasion was dispensed with. During the night, a terrific storm arose, and when dawn broke, it was found that the old windmill roof, wings and all, had been blown completely over into the field as before.

  • May Cottage Wildlife Report
    May Cottage Wildlife Report This report was prepared by John Hudson Ecological Consultancy and Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority as part of the ‘Naturally Connected’ project. The project was funded by the Welsh Government’s Sustainable Development Fund. This is a pilot project so we would love to receive your feedback on this information pack.

Species photographs are copyright of northeastwildlife.co.uk unless otherwise stated Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Welcome to Pembrokeshire Coast National Park! Pembrokeshire lies at the south west extreme of Wales and is surrounded on three sides by the sea. Pembrokeshire's marine and terrestrial environments are strongly influenced by the Gulf Stream and the National Park supports species found in both warmer, southern areas as well as those from colder, northern regions. Pembrokeshire is internationally important for many of its coastal, marine and lowland heath habitats as well as ancient, semi-natural oak woodland in the North of the park. These habitats support some of our most iconic species including choughs, puffins and seals. The high wildlife value of the Park is reflected by its nature conservation designations which include: 13 Special Areas of Conservation (3 Marine SACs overlap about 75% of the Park coastline and account for about 60% of the inshore area). 5 Special Protection Areas. 1 Marine Nature Reserve (Skomer) – one of three in the UK. 7 National Nature Reserves. 60 Sites of Special Scientific Interest. With miles of rugged coastline, sandy beaches, farmland, valleys, hills and woodlands to explore, we hope this short guide will help you experience some of the fabulous wildlife our National Park has to offer.
