  • The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages1
    The Military Orders in Wales and the Welsh March in the Middle Ages In the later medieval centuries the Hospitallers’ estates in Wales were among the most extensive of any religious corporation there. In 1535, just before the dissolution of the monasteries, the commandery at Slebech was the third richest monastic house in Wales, after the Cistercian abbeys at Tintern and Valle Crucis. The next richest house after Slebech was another Cistercian house, Margam Abbey, © Copyrighted Material followed by the Benedictine priory at Abergavenny. by comparison with other Hospitaller houses in England and Wales. In 1338 it received the largest income of any Hospitaller house in England and Wales, apart Chapter 16 from the main house at Clerkenwell just outside London, fourth highest net value of the Hospitallers’ twenty-two houses in England and Wales, after Clerkenwell, Buckland and Ribston. we might expect the Hospitallers to have held great authority and power in Wales, and their Welsh property to have been very significant within the Order.

  • Milford Haven Waterway Recreation Plan
    2016 Milford Haven Waterway 5 Year Recreation Management Plan 2 Foreword by the Harbourmaster The Port of Milford Haven aims to ensure that the diverse interests of all users are balanced in a way that promotes a safe, efficient and enjoyable environment. Having undergone several new developments in recent years, the Waterway has gained status as one of the largest oil and gas ports in Northern Europe, and whilst we are proud of the Port’s reputation as the UK’s Energy Capital, we are always keen to demonstrate how an increasing number of leisure users happily co- exist with the commercial traffic on the Waterway. Indeed, the majority of the 23 miles for which we are responsible, is devoted entirely to recreational use. The Milford Haven Waterway is famed for its sheltered, tidal waters, its diverse coastline and unique environmental qualities. Part of the only coastal national park in the UK, it is the largest estuary in Wales and recognised as a Special Area of Conservation (SAC). It is also a Waterway that has become a valuable resource for leisure enthusiasts. Focusing on this aspect of the Waterway, this document is the result of a collaborative approach to planning, monitoring and managing the Haven’s recreational opportunities. It offers clear guidance as to how the Port of Milford Haven actively engages with the Waterway’s community stakeholders and partner organisations in the delivery of a sustainable approach to safe and enjoyable water-borne recreation.

  • Programme 3 the Norman Conquest of Pembrokeshire
    PROGRAMME 3 THE NORMAN CONQUEST OF PEMBROKESHIRE Introduction. We’re walking through Pembrokeshire and Britain’s only coastal national park to discover how a group of French-speaking warriors turned this corner of Wales into a place still known as ‘Little England beyond Wales’. Home to miles of rugged coast line, beautiful beaches and incredible wildlife, it’s a landscape and culture heavily shaped by the Normans. Unlike the knockout victory of Hastings, this conquest was a long, fiercely fought struggle. Over time the Normans turned a Welsh speaking Kingdom into an English speaking shire dominated by castles, churches and the amazing cathedral in the city of St Davids. .Walking Through History Day 1 . From St Davids, we’ll make our way along the coastal cliffs, learning about the Norman’s first meetings with the native Welsh. We’ll start by walking in the footsteps of England’s greatest warrior king – William the Conqueror. St Davids to Newgale via Pembrokeshire Coastal Path Distance: 10 miles Day 2 . Heading inland, we’re walking the rough frontier the Norman’s fought to create with the rest of Wales. We’ll trace this boundary – or Landsker Line – that formed as Normans and Flemings flooded in, past early defences at Hayscastle and Wolfcastle. Climbing Great Treffgarne Mountain gives the perfect look out over the landscape facing the invaders. Finally we head south-west, to discover how the native Welsh fought back as I reach Wiston. Newgale to Wiston via Hayscastle, Wolfcastle and Great Treffgarne Mountain Distance: 20 miles Day 3 . The River Cleddau is our guide on Day 3, as we find out how a stunning welsh princess seduced Normans, Welsh and English alike.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................

  • Kete on the Dale Peninsula in the County of Pembrokeshire in South West Wales Began in 1944
    Acknowledgements Extracts taken from... HMS HARRIER by the REVEREND ANDREW W. HUCKETT Photographs courtesy of... Mrs E.M. Jones & Mrs Ruth Steere Bill Brimson Rick Parkinson Janet Jaehne Margaret Copley PJ & MI Squibb The construction of HMS Harrier at Kete on the Dale peninsula in the county of Pembrokeshire in south west Wales began in 1944. It was originally known as HMS Goldcrest II, a satellite of HMS Goldcrest, the Royal Naval Air Station at nearby Dale. Photograph supplied by Mrs E.M. Jones & Mrs Ruth Steere On February 1st 1948 it was commissioned as HMS Harrier, the tenth ‘ship’ to bear the name, as the Royal Navy Aircraft Direction (RNAD) centre. The purpose of the centre was to train Air Direction officers for service primarily with the aircraft carriers of the Fleet, and both ratings and WRNS as Air Plotters for service at sea and ashore. Bill Brimson WRNS Radar Plotting Course – Kete c1951 In the early days aircraft could not be spared from the war at sea for training use. The Royal Navy used ice cream tricycles requisitioned from a well know ice cream manufacturer. Each trike was fitted with a radio telephone, a compass and a metronome for beating time. One trike would pretend to be an enemy bomber, and steer a course by compass while pedalling in strict time with the metronome. The radar operator’s job was to spot it and direct the ‘friendly’ trikes to attack it. Adapted from the National Trust Information Board. Photograph supplied by Mrs E.M. Jones & Mrs Ruth Steere The training of Air Direction officers to identify and take appropriate action against incoming ‘enemy’ aircraft used simulated attacks and on occasion, aircraft from aircraft carriers visiting Milford Haven, or aircraft from RNAS Dale.
