Minister Helps Mark New School Milestone
Minister helps mark new school milestone A Welsh Government Minister has taken part in an ancient ceremony to mark the development of the new Welsh-medium school for three to 16-year-olds currently under construction in Haverfordwest. Eluned Morgan AM, the Minister for Welsh Language and Lifelong Learning, performed a ‘topping-out’ event on the site of the £28 million development at Withybush. The school – which is yet to be formally named – represents the first ever investment in Welsh language secondary education in that particular part of Pembrokeshire. The only other Welsh medium secondary provision in Pembrokeshire is based in Crymych, with travel times from the mid and south of the county in excess of 45 minutes. It is one of several schools which have been built, or are being built, under the 21st Century Schools and Education programme – a £120 million initiative between Pembrokeshire County Council and the Welsh Government to build state-of-the-art schools. The development will provide a: 45-place nursery 315-place primary provision 600-place secondary school 24-place playgroup (Cylch Meithrin) Also included is an all-weather sports pitch and associated facilities. The ‘topping-out’ event marked the structural completion of the highest point of the building by contractors Willmott Dixon. The ceremony is said to ward off evil spirits and bestow good fortune on a property. It involved pouring wine, oil, corn and salt on a small yew tree. In ancient times a yew tree branch was placed in the uppermost part of a new construction as a symbol of completion. -

Local Development Plan Draft Review (LDP2: 2017 – 2033) Strategic Housing Options Supplementary Paper Defining Settlement Clusters
Local Development Plan Draft Review (LDP2: 2017 – 2033) Strategic Housing Options Supplementary Paper Defining Settlement Clusters 1. Introduction This paper has been prepared to assist the review of the Local Development Plan and specifically relates to the potential approach to Settlement Clusters discussed within the ‘Strategic Housing Options Paper’. That paper will assist in identifying alternative options for future housing development within urban and rural areas of the County outside of the National Park. The Authority is currently working towards establishing a Preferred Strategy and is preparing a draft vision and objectives for the Plan. These will be available for public consultation Summer 2018. A range of information has been gathered about services available at individual settlements, which is set out in the Rural Facilities Paper 2017. The information gathered allows us to understand the role and function currently performed by settlements and is used to inform the settlement hierarchy for the LDP review. The purpose of this supplementary paper is to set out an approach to settlement clusters at the lower end of the settlement hierarchy. Settlements at the lower end of the settlement hierarchy are called Large Local Villages and Small Local Villages within the Local Development Plan hierarchy. (They are proposed as ‘Local Villages’ within the Rural Facilities Paper). This paper is not intended to set out locations where development can take place, but to identify a clear methodology for clusters of settlements, and taking account of the settlement hierarchy established as part of the LDP2 Review and published within the Rural Facilities Background Paper 2017. It is supplementary to the Strategic Housing Options Paper where the rural housing option of Clusters is considered along with other options for housing at Local Villages. -

Report No. 39/20 National Park Authority
Report No. 39/20 National Park Authority REPORT OF PERFORMANCE AND COMPLIANCE CO-ORDINATOR SUBJECT: ANNUAL REPORT ON MEETING WELL-BEING OBJECTIVES (IMPROVEMENT PLAN PART 2) 2019/20 Under the Local Government (Wales) Measure, the Authority is required to publish an Improvement Plan Part 2 by 31st October. The Well-being of Future Generations Act 2015 also places a duty on the Authority to set out its Well-being Objectives and to demonstrate how these contribute to the Welsh Government’s seven Well-being Goals. Under the legislation each year bodies must publish an annual report showing the progress they have made in meeting their objectives. They must also demonstrate how they have applied the 5 ways of working under the sustainable development principle of Long Term, Prevention, Integration, Collaboration and Involvement. This document is both the Authority’s Improvement Plan Part 2 and its annual report on progress made against its Well-being Objectives. In order to ensure equality and conservation considerations are mainstreamed across the Authority it also acts as our annual equality report and forms one element of the Authority’s reporting on how it complies with the S6 duty under the Environment (Wales) Act 2016. The report is long but this reflects the wide range of work and activities the Authority does to contribute to delivery of its Well-being objectives and its contribution to the wider Wales Well-being Goals and National Well-being Indicators. A number of data sets included in this report have previously been reported in performance reports and have been reviewed and subsequently amended where needed. -
THE NEWS of DINAS 1894 – 1900 Transcribed from the COUNTY ECHO
THE NEWS OF DINAS 1894 – 1900 transcribed from THE COUNTY ECHO DINAS HISTORY SERIES his book is a transcription of all the Dinas news items from The County Echo, a Fishguard-based newspaper, for the years 1894, Twhen the newspaper commenced publication, to 1900 inclusive. The content is remarkable for its comprehensive coverage of village life. The correspondent(s), perhaps unwittingly, produced a social history of Dinas in the last seven years of the nineteenth century, one which almost reads, without editorial help, as a connected narrative. A picture emerges of a lively, sometimes controversial, but confident community in the far-south-western fringe of Wales at the very end of the Victorian era. The way of life recorded is both rural and truly parochial, but always tempered with the globe-trotting adventures and tragedies of the many sailors and master mariners from the village. This was still the age of the horse and cart, with bicycles being a novelty. Chapel and church life, along with deferential accounts of the clergy involved, inevitably take a prominent part in the narrative as do the fulsome accounts of funerals and tragedies; however, social innovation in the form of a Regatta in 1899 is proudly recorded. The Temperance Movement, so vitally important at the turn of the century, is faithfully described in its manifestations from hayfield to chapel. The text is presented without editing or alteration, variable spellings and local usage being preserved; where some doubt exists over the original, then the editorial convention of square brackets is used. Only one comment is made and that to explain a deliberate policy of concealment by the correspondent. -
