  • Gilfach Heritage Assessment Final Report
    Gilfach Interpretation Strategy Heritage Assessment for The Radnorshire Wildlife Trust October 2015 Gilfach Interpretation Strategy: Heritage Assessment 1. The Physical Heritage Asset Statement of Heritage Significance An outstanding historical composite upland Welsh landscape which is the cumulative result of a long period of development: with likely evidence of human occupation, use and management for over 3000 years and demonstrating some of the most important periods of development and social change in Welsh history. Radnorshire is well-known as a sparsely populated, rural county. The results of the heritage assessment of Gilfach have shown that the extent of human activity has extended beyond the limits of modern settlement and agriculture into landscapes which are now considered to be ‘natural environments’, but which are in reality heavily influenced by past human activity and key elements in understanding the history of the county and its communities. There is an abundance of archaeological and historic sites within the Gilfach reserve. The majority are spread across the south facing slope to the north of the Afon (River) Marteg. Many features have been identified but not dated or there are conflicts in the official records (see Appendix A) and this provides opportunities for fieldwork and investigation, in order to unravel the story and historical development of the Marteg Valley. Many sites are also hard to recognise in the landscape but also provide opportunities for interpretation. In general it would appear that there was substantial pre-historic human presence in this area, possibly as a ritual or funerary site. A possible road and ford between marching camps outside the area provides evidence of the Roman occupation of Wales, while in the medieval period there seems to have been substantial rural settlement of the valley slopes which was later abandoned.

For details about joining the WRRC, contact [email protected] or check the Circle’s web site, wrrc.org.uk Mike Morton Lloyd: A background to the photographs Mike took his first railway photograph on a Summer Saturday in 1947 of a Great Western 2-8-0 as it laboured with a heavy coal train up Llanvihangel Bank. The rest of that day saw him complete his bicycle journey through Abergavenny, Brynmawr, Merthyr Tydfil and Brecon before returning home to Hereford – a distance of some 80 miles! This combination of camera, bike and stamina was to hold him in good stead as he visited and photographed the branch lines around Hereford. Even then it was the Welsh connection, particularly the Mid-Wales line of the Wye Valley that interested him most – thus beginning his long association with all things Cambrian. A move to the Wirral, his marriage to Irene, a honeymoon based in Welshpool (including a brake van ride on the Welshpool and Llanfair), only helped to develop further Mike’s love of all things Cambrian. Many photographic journeys to all parts of the old Cambrian system, especially his beloved Tanat Valley, were made at this time. His return to live in Hereford and his position with the Wye River Board meant that Mike was now able to combine work with pleasure.
