  • Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks
    Medieval Heritage and Pilgrimage Walks Cleveland Way Trail: walk the 3 miles from Rievaulx Abbey, Yorkshire to Helmsley Castle and tread in the footsteps of medieval Pilgrims along what’s now part of the Cleveland Way Trail. Camino de Santiago/Way of St James, Spain: along with trips to the Holy Land and Rome, this is the most famous medieval pilgrimage trail of all, and the most well-travelled in medieval times, at least until the advent of Black Death. Its destination point is the spot St James is said to have been buried, in the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela. Today Santiago is one of UNESCO’s World Heritage sites. Read more . the Cathedral of Santiago de Compostela holds a Pilgrims’ Mass every day at noon. Walk as much or as little of it as you like. Follow the famous scallop shell symbols. A popular starting point, both today and in the Middle Ages, is either Le Puy in the Massif Central, France OR the famous medieval Abbey at Cluny, near Paris. The Spanish start is from the Pyrenees, on to Roncevalles or Jaca. These routes also take in the Via Regia and/or the Camino Frances. The Portuguese way is also popular: from the Cathedrals in either Lisbon or Porto and then crossing into Falicia/Valenca. At the end of the walk you receive a stamped certifi cate, the Compostela. To achieve this you must have walked at least 100km or cycled for 200. To walk the entire route may take months. Read more . The route has inspired many TV and fi lm productions, such as Simon Reeve’s BBC2 ‘Pilgrimage’ series (2013) and The Way (2010), written and directed by Emilio Estevez, about a father completing the pilgrimage in memory of his son who died along the Way of St James.

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.

  • The Status of the Marsh Fritillary in Wales: 2016
    The Status of the Marsh Fritillary in Wales: 2016 A lean year… If you visited a Marsh Fritillary site during the 2016 flight season you were probably struck by just how few butterflies were flying, even when the weather was fine – not just Marsh Fritillaries, but other species too. This was the case even on sites which held good numbers of larval webs in the autumn of 2015. It was all rather puzzling. But just how badly did the Marsh Fritillary fare in 2016? Keep reading to find out… Introduction The conservation of the Marsh Fritillary, one of the most rapidly declining butterflies in Europe, hinges on knowing where our core populations are, how they are faring and making sure that sites are well managed for the butterfly. Where are they? – Population status surveys To maintain an up-to-date picture of where our Welsh Marsh Fritillary populations are (distribution) Butterfly Conservation Wales (BCW) co-ordinates a Wales-wide programme of visits in which every population gets at least one survey visit every five years. As well as confirming presence or absence, these visits can also highlight concerns, such as management issues, that need following up. How strong are they? – Surveillance programme To assess how strong our Marsh Fritillary populations are, and how this changes over time, the Wales Marsh Fritillary Surveillance Programme was established in 2012 by BCW in partnership with Natural Resources Wales (NRW). Annual larval web counts of key populations (21 currently) are undertaken and used to calculate both site-level and Wales-wide trends. 1 Population Status Surveys The rolling programme of five-yearly site visits continued in 2016.

  • Capel Soar-Y-Mynydd, Ceredigion
    Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion Richard Coates 2017 Capel Soar-y-mynydd, Ceredigion The chapel known as Soar-y-mynydd or Soar y Mynydd lies near the eastern extremity of the large parish of Llanddewi Brefi, in the valley of the river Camddwr deep in the “Green Desert of Wales”, the Cambrian Mountains of Ceredigion (National Grid Reference SN 7847 5328). It is some eight miles south-east of Tregaron, or more by road. Its often-repeated claim to fame is that it is the remotest chapel in all Wales (“capel mwyaf pellennig/anghysbell Cymru gyfan”). Exactly how that is measured I am not sure, but it is certainly remote by anyone in Britain’s standards. It is approached on rough and narrow roads from the directions of Tregaron, Llanwrtyd Wells, and Llandovery. It is just east of the now vanished squatter settlement (tŷ unnos) called Brithdir (whose site is still named on the Ordnance Survey 6" map in 1980-1), and it has become progressively more remote as the local sheep-farms have been abandoned, most of them as a result of the bad winter of 1946-7. Its name means ‘Zoar of the mountain’ or ‘of the upland moor’. Zoar or its Welsh equivalent Soar is a not uncommon chapel name in Wales. It derives from the mention in Genesis 19:20-30 of a place with this name which served as a temporary sanctuary for Lot and his daughters and which was spared by God when Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed. (“Behold now, this city is near to flee unto, and it is a little one: Oh, let me escape thither, (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live.
