    Welsh Government M4 Corridor around Newport Environmental Statement Volume 3: Appendix 8.5 Newport Docks Historic Built Environment Assessment 2008 M4CaN-DJV-EHR-ZG_GEN-AX-EN-0002 At Issue | March 2016 Job number OXF 9046 CVJV/AAR 3rd Floor Longross Court, 47 Newport Road, Cardiff CF24 0AD Welsh Government M4 Corridor around Newport Environmental Statement Volume 3: Appendix 8.5 Newport Docks Historic Built Environment Assessment 2008 Statement of Use This report has been prepared by Wessex Archaeology Limited in 2008 on behalf of the Welsh Assembly Government (now Welsh Government). The work carried out was an assessment of the historic built environment of Newport Docks for the previously proposed M4 Relief Road from Magor to Castleton, Gwent. The contents of this report have been used to inform the baseline for Environmental Impact Assessment of the M4 Corridor around Newport (M4CaN) presented in the Environmental Statement. A brief reconnaissance visit to Newport Docks was undertaken in July 2015 with regard to the current Scheme. The aim of the visit was to review the present state of the buildings within the footprint of the Scheme in order to review any changes that may have occurred subsequent to the more detailed survey presented within this Appendix. The principal change recorded during the 2015 reconnaissance visit was with regard to the roofs of several of the historic locomotive running sheds and engineering buildings in the eastern part of the docks. Components 04a, 04b, 04c, 04d, 04e, 04h and 12 have all been recently reroofed using modern materials, replacing the material described in this Appendix.

  • Petition: Support the M4 Relief Road Black Route
    Y Gwasanaeth Ymchwil | Research Service # Y Gwasanaeth Ymchwil | Research Service Petition: Support the M4 Relief Road Black Route Y Pwyllgor Deisebau | 9 Hydref 2018 Petitions Committee | 9 October 2018 Research Briefing: Petition Number: P-05-838 Petition title: Support the M4 Relief Road Black Route Text of petition: We call on the Welsh Government to continue with its plans to build the M4 Relief Road along the proposed Black Route, and following the announcement that the Welsh Government will table a debate on the M4 plans later this year, we call on the National Assembly to support the project. The need for a new motorway around Newport is overwhelming with the congestion around the Brynglas Tunnels negatively impacting on businesses and people from across South Wales. The first proposal for a relief road was published in 1991, almost 30 years ago. Although the failure to take action over three decades isn’t solely to blame, we believe it hasn’t helped the economic well-being of the current generation and has contributed towards: . The employment rate in Wales being an average of over 3% lower than the UK employment rate since the mid-1990s. The Welsh GVA per head being consistently lower than 75% of the UK average since the late-1990s with most recent figures showing that Cardiff’s GVA per head is the lowest 1 of the four UK capital cities. The Welsh Government’s analysis from March 2016 finds that a new M4 around Newport will improve connectivity within South Wales and with the rest of the UK which will: .

The matter of whether a plan is considered ‘sound’ will be for the appointed Planning Inspector to determine. I have considered the Deposit LDP in accordance with the consistency/coherence and effectiveness tests, and principally in accordance with whether satisfactory regard has been given to national planning policy (test C2). The Welsh Governments representations are separated into 4 categories which are supported with more detail in the attached annex. Category A: Objection under soundness tests C2, CE2: Fundamental issues that are considered to present a significant degree of risk for the authority if not addressed prior to submission stage, and may have implications for the plan’s strategy: (i) Housing Provision (ii) Affordable Housing Target (iii) Scale of Employment Allocations (iv) Deliverability of Employment (v) Mineral Safeguarding and Apportionment Category B: Objections under soundness tests C2, CE1, CE2: Matters where it appears that the deposit plan has not satisfactorily translated national policy down to the local level and there may be tensions within the plan, namely: (i)

  • A Study Into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of Tredegar House
    A Study into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of INTRODUCTION Tredegar House in the late-Seventeenth Century There are many reasons why people wanted to own material goods, some practical, some financial, some psychological. This makes it necessary to explore social as well as economic factors. 1 Becky Gingell As Lorna Weatherill’s comments above, there are a variety of ways in which the study of material culture can be examined, as well as a number of reasons for such an investigation. The study of material culture can provide a vivid insight into the past, and a vast amount can be discovered about the individuals who owned the household goods. The ability to purchase new items was obviously determined by the person’s financial background and whether they were a spendthrift by nature, or perhaps less inclined to use their wealth, ranging from practical necessities of the household to the accumulation of personal niceties, to the more fundamental psychological reasons for owning such goods – desire and emulation. The Morgan family of Tredegar has had a long association with the county of Monmouthshire dating as far back as the fifteenth century and finally ending in the twentieth century when the house was finally sold. Each member of the Morgan family was famous during their lifetime and several grew to be significant entrepreneurs, while others became renowned for their eccentric behaviour. What this study will concentrate upon is the ownership of Tredegar House during the late-seventeenth century and the way in which the estate was run coinciding with the material culture of the owners during this period.

Foreword In April 2019, the Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA), took on the role of impartial commissioner to support an independent review of an innovative, regional ALN1 service; SenCom (Sensory & Communication Support Service). SenCom, is a joint service working across five local authorities in South East Wales; Blaenau Gwent, Caerphilly, Newport, Monmouthshire, Torfaen. SenCom has been delivering collaborative ALN services under its umbrella designation, since 2015. Their work includes the conveyancing of a wide range of specialist advisory, teaching services and interventions to families and schools. During this corresponding period of SenCom’s development, the Welsh Government’s aspirations in respect of this educational area, have been clear-cut and unmistakeably expressed; they wish to ensure high-quality support is available to children with additional learning needs in schools across the country. This objective is a central tenet of its new legislation and the ensuing ALN Code of Practice. “The Welsh Government is committed to creating a fully inclusive education system where all learners are inspired, motivated and supported to reach their potential.
