Mynydd Pencarreg transmitting station

The Mynydd Pencarreg transmitting station is a broadcasting and telecommunications facility located on high ground about 10 kilometres (6.2 miles) south of Lampeter, in Ceredigion, Wales. The site has a guyed 99 m (325 ft) lattice mast erected on land that is itself about 410 m (1,345 ft) above sea level. It was originally built by the GPO as a telecommunications relay, and (amongst other things) was responsible for handling the microwave feed carrying the now-defunct 405-line VHF BBC television service to the television transmitter at Blaenplwyf about 35 kilometres (22 miles) to the northwest near Aberystwyth. Despite this, Mynydd Pencarreg was never a 405-line TV broadcast site. Broadcast UHF television was added to the site in early 1981, launching with just the three programme services that were active at the time. S4C was added in 1982 when it launched. Currently, the transmitter provides DVB-T digital television to the Lampeter area, along with FM radio. Services listed by frequency Analogue television February 1981 - 1 November 1982 When 625-line colour television came to the area, the site became a relay of Preseli about 50 kilometres (31 miles) to the southwest. 1 November 1982 - 19 August 2009 Channel 4 was added to the set transmitted from the site when it launched in November 1982. Being in Wales, Mynydd Pencarreg radiated the S4C variant. Analogue and digital television 19 August 2009 - 16 September 2009 The UK's digital switchover commenced, mirroring the changes taking place at the parent transmitter at Preseli. Analogue BBC Two Wales closed on channel 64 and ITV1 Wales took over on that frequency for what would be its final 3 weeks of service, vacating channel 61 as it did so. The new digital BBC A multiplex started up at full power in 64-QAM mode on channel 61. Digital television 16 September 2009 - 31 October 2012 All the analogue television services closed and the new digital multiplexes took over their frequencies. 31 October 2012 - present OFCOM have announced that channel 61 is also to be cleared so as to make space for future 4G mobile phone services. At Mynydd Pencarreg, BBC A was moved from channel 61 to channel 49. Analogue radio (FM VHF) August 1981 - Late 1980s FM radio from Mynydd Pencarreg launched in 1981, initially with just the three services that were typical of the time. For radio, the site was an off-air relay of Blaenplwyf.

Wat's Dyke

Wat's Dyke (walisisk: Clawdd Wat) er 64 km lang jordvold, der løber igennem den nordlige del af Welsh Marches fra Basingwerk Abbey til floden Dees flodmunding, og går videre øst for Oswestry og videre til Maesbury i Shropshire, England. Dets forløb er generelt parallel til Offa's Dyke, og nogle gange inden for får meter, og aldrig mere end 5 km væk. Det fremstår i dag ubetydeligt, nogle gange som en hævet hæk og andre steder blot som kornmærker, og voldgraven er blevet fyldt op, og det meste af volden er pløjet væk, men det var opindeligt et stor konstruktion, der blev betragtet som mere soistikeret end Offa's Dyke. Den præcise datering for etableringen er usikker, og den går fra perioden efter romerne forlod Storbritannien i slutningen af 400-tallet til begyndelsen af 800-tallet. Visse teorier pger på at Æthelbald af Mercia opførte diget. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger
Wat’s Dyke

Wat’s Dyke ist ein über 60 km langer Wall in der walisisch-englischen Grenzregion Welsh Marches. Der Wall verläuft unter anderem an Oswestry vorbei. Historiker einigten sich auf das 8. Jahrhundert als Entstehungszeitraum, doch verweisen C14-Messungen auf das 5. Jahrhundert. Literatur Margaret Worthington: Wat’s Dyke: An Archaeological and Historical Enigma.

Muro de Wat

El muro de Wat (en galés: Clawdd Wat, en inglés: Wat's Dyke) es una elevación de tierra de 40 millas (64,4 km) que atraviesa las Marcas Galesas de desde la abadía de Basingwerk en el estuario del río Dee, pasando al este de Oswestry y hasta Maesbury en Shropshire, Inglaterra. La fecha de construcción es controvertida, abarcando desde la era posromana hasta principios del siglo IX. Descripción Generalmente corre paralelo a la muralla de Offa, a veces a unas pocas yardas, pero nunca más de 3 millas (5 km) de distancia. Ahora parece insignificante, a veces un seto elevado y en otros lugares ahora no es más que una marca de cosecha, la zanja hace mucho tiempo que se llenó y el banco se derribó, pero originalmente era una construcción considerable, considerada estratégicamente más sofisticada que la muralla de Offa.​ Historia Se pensaba que el muro databa de principios del siglo VIII, construido por Ethelbaldo, rey de Mercia, que reinó entre 716 y 757. El sucesor de Ethelbaldo, Offa, construyó el muro que lleva su nombre en algún momento durante su reinado (757 a 796). Las excavaciones en la década de 1990 en Maes-y-Clawdd, cerca de Oswestry, descubrieron los restos de un pequeño sitio de incendio junto con fragmentos erosionados de cerámica romano-británica y cantidades de carbón, que datan de entre 411 y 561 d. C. (centrado alrededor de 446 d. C.).​ Esta evidencia parece ubicar la construcción del muro en la era del reino posromano cuya capital estaba en Viroconium (justo al sur de la actual Shrewsbury) a unas 10 millas (16 km) al este.​ Se ha cuestionado la datación del lugar del incendio y, por lo tanto, del muro, y se ha sugerido que, debido a las dificultades inherentes a la datación por radiocarbono, no se puede confiar plenamente en esta fecha única y también que el muro podría haberse construido fácilmente sobre el lugar del incendio en una fecha posterior.​ Excavaciones en 2006 sugirieron una fecha muy posterior de 792–852, y ahora se cree que la fecha anterior se relaciona con un lugar de incendio de un movimiento de tierra prerromano que precedió al muro real. Se ha sugerido tentativamente que el contexto probable para la construcción es en la década de 820, cuando el rey de Mercia Coenwulf estaba luchando contra una resurgente amenaza galesa.​ Camino del muro de Wat La línea aproximada del movimiento de tierras es seguida por Wat's Dyke Way, un camino señalizado de larga distancia que recorre 61 millas (98,2 km) desde Llanymynech en Powys hasta Basingwerk Abbey en el río Dee cerca de Holywell. Fue inaugurado en 2007.​ Referencias Bibliografía Blake, Steve y Scott, Lloyd (2003): The Keys to Avalon: The True Location of Arthur’s Kingdom Revealed. Revised Edition, published by Rider.

Digue de Wat

La digue de Wat (Wat's Dyke en anglais) est un ouvrage défensif en terre situé à la frontière entre l'Angleterre et le pays de Galles. Longue de 62 km, la digue s'étend sur la partie nord de la frontière anglo-galloise. Elle démarre à Basingwerk, sur l'estuaire de la Dee, et s'étend jusqu'à un point situé au sud d'Oswestry, près d'un affluent de la Vyrnwy. Son tracé suit de près celui de la digue d'Offa, qui se trouve à quelques kilomètres seulement à l'ouest. La digue de Wat n'a jamais été datée archéologiquement. Elle pourrait avoir servi de modèle à celle d'Offa, ou au contraire s'en être inspirée.

Nant-y-moch Reservoir

Nant-y-moch Reservoir () is situated in the Cambrian Mountains in northern Ceredigion, Wales, near Pumlumon. The reservoir which flooded a part of the valley of the River Rheidol and its headwaters derives its name from a stream, the Nant-y-moch (in English = the pigs stream,), which formerly flowed into the River Rheidol at this spot. The dam is about three miles north of the village of Ponterwyd. The reservoir forms part of the Cwm Rheidol hydroelectric power scheme and the headwaters of the reservoir include the source of the River Rheidol. The Nant-y-moch component of the hydroelectric scheme has an installed capacity of 13 MW generated as the water from Nant-y-moch enters Dinas Reservoir. History Nant-y-moch Reservoir was created in 1964. The construction of the dam flooded the valley north of it, which included the hamlet of Nant-y-moch. The contents of the graveyard which was to be submerged were relocated to the chapel at Ponterwyd, and a number of cairns were painstakingly moved, some of which dated back as far as the Iron Age.

Nantyglo Round Towers

Nantyglo Round Towers are located at Roundhouse Farm, Nantyglo, near Brynmawr in the borough of Blaenau Gwent in the South Wales Valleys. The two fortified towers were constructed in the early 19th century as places of retreat by the ironmaster Joseph Bailey, after a riot was caused by his brother's threat to cut wages. They are believed to some of the last privately built defensive fortifications in Britain. One of the towers remains intact today whilst the other is in ruins having been partly demolished to salvage scrap iron in the 1940s. History Bailey built the towers after 1816 when some of his workers rioted when his brother, Crawshay Bailey, threatened to cut their wages. Wanting a defensible retreat in case it happened again, Joseph built them at the north-east and south-west corners of a sandstone wall that surrounds Roundhouse Farm, near his mansion Nantyglo House or Ty Mawr. All of the fittings of the towers were made from cast iron and were one of the earliest surviving uses of structural cast iron in Britain. The south-west tower was originally one storey higher than the two-storey north-east tower and served as a residence until the 1930s. The tower was partially demolished during the 1940s to extract the cast iron. The towers were restored in 1986–93 by the Gwent County Council and several other governmental bodies. Description The ground floor of the south-west tower is mostly intact, but the walls of the first storey are substantially ruined and the entire second storey is missing as are the cast iron roof, roof trusses and floor joists. These latter have been cut where they join the outer wall. The floors are missing in the north-east tower, but their joists remain and are substantially intact. The roof is intact with its wedge-shaped iron plates. One roof truss had sheared by 2003, but was being supported by interior scaffolding. Neither is open to the public though they can be viewed from nearby. References External links (reconstruction) Ty Mawr, towers and quarters, miners' houses above right hand tower with cloud issuing
Narberth Castle

Narberth Castle (walisisk: Castell Arberth) er ruinen af en normannisk borg i byen Narberth, Pembrokeshire, West Wales. Den er en del af Landsker Line. En krønike i Cotton library nævner at at Gruffydd ap Rhys angreb og ødelagde borgren arberth i 1116; dette er dog sandsynligvis en omtale af den nærliggende Sentence Castle, da stenfæstningen Narberth ikke var blevet bygget før 100 år senere. Under glyndwroprøret i begyndelsen af 1400-tallet blev den ikke erobret. Oliver Cromwell erobrede den under den den engelske borgerkrig i midten af 1600-tallet, og den blev herefter ødelagt.

Narberth Castle

Narberth Castle (Welsh: Castell Arberth) is a ruined Norman fortress in the town of Narberth, Pembrokeshire, West Wales. It forms part of the Landsker Line. A chronicle in the Cotton library mentions that, in 1116, Gruffydd ap Rhys attacked and destroyed the castle of arberth; this however probably refers to the nearby Sentence Castle, the stone castle at Narberth not having been built until over 100 years later. Origins The current ruins are undoubtedly Norman and seem to date from the 13th century, having been built by Andrew Perrot. However the castle is mentioned in the third branch of the Mabinogi as the place where Rhiannon was imprisoned and forced to carry travellers through the gates as penance for killing her son. Although there is some controversy over the actual location of the castle in the Mabinogi (there are at least two other earthworks nearby that are contenders, but neither are in good defensive positions compared to the site of this one), the Normans often built castles on top of earlier defensive structures and it is plausible that the original was obliterated. History The castle never changed hands throughout the Glyndŵr Rising in 1400–1415 and was slighted after being taken by Oliver Cromwell in the English Civil War. Excavations have found more than 20 graves on the north side dating from the 12th century to the 13th, hinting that the area may have once been the site of a church. In the early part of the 20th century, the annual town fair held a procession which ended in the castle, with dancing and music. In 2005, the castle was opened again to the public after being taken over by the council and made safe. At the opening ceremony, the official documents confirming the 'twinning' of Narberth and Ludlow were signed by the towns' mayors. There was also a performance of a specially written adaptation by Derek Webb of the Mabinogion tale Culhwch and Olwen featuring many local children and a giant boar made by a local artist. Style The castle has provided a good deal of building material for the surrounding houses and the remains are mostly single and double storey walls, with the barrel-vaulted kitchen cellars intact. No upper storey rooms are intact. There is an early engraving visible on an information board at Narberth railway station (and possible elsewhere in the town) which shows now-vanished tall chimneys of a Flemish style that can still be seen at the well-preserved Manorbier Castle.

National Wool Museum

National Wool Museum er et museum, der ligger i Drefach Felindre, Llandysul, Carmarthenshire, Wales. Det er en del af museumsammenslutningen Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales. Museet formidler om uldindustrien i Wales, der har været landsdelens vigtigste industri helt op i 1800-tallet. Teifi Valley var centrum for uldindustrien i West Wales, og området fik kælenavnet "det walisiske Huddersfield" ("The Huddersfield of Wales"). Referencer Eksterne henvisninger Officiel hjemmeside
National Wool Museum

The National Wool Museum, located in Drefach Felindre, Llandysul, Carmarthenshire, is part of Amgueddfa Cymru – Museum Wales. Background Historically and into the 19th century, the woollen industry in Wales, including spinning and weaving, surpassed even coal as the most important of Wales' industries. The Teifi Valley was the centre of the West Wales woollen industry, earning itself the nickname "The Huddersfield of Wales." Cambrian Mills David Lewis erected Cambrian Mills on the site of a former small water-powered weaving workshop in 1902. The new mill was to supply the need for woollen cloth for working men in the coal and steel industries. In 1915, a hundred people were employed and flannel was produced for military uniforms for WWI. In 1919, fire broke out in the carding and spinning department and the damage caused was estimated at £20,000. A workman on the top floor had a lucky escape when, having found his exit route blocked by flames and smoke, he climbed onto the roof and was rescued with the aid of a long ladder. The mill was subsequently rebuilt despite the recent decline in orders for woollen textiles. In 1965 the mill was put up for sale with 30 people being employed at that time and in 1976 the museum was opened to the public. The museum Both the mill and the village of Drefach Felindre are a national heritage site. Launched as the Museum of the Welsh Woollen Industry in 1976, it reopened in March 2004 as the National Wool Museum following a two-year, £2 million refit partly funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The restoration work includes a glass roofed courtyard and a new gallery which displays aspects of the National Flat Textile collection. As well as historic machinery, a raised walkway gives a view of textiles in production at Melin Teifi, the site's commercial woollen mill. In 2005 a Research and Collections Centre opened which includes a room dedicated to hands-on learning opportunities. The renovation was part of a £40m museum strategy for Wales and opened by National Assembly for Wales Culture Minister Alun Pugh. The strategy embraces three existing site-specific museums; the National Wool Museum, the National Slate Museum at Llanberis; Big Pit National Coal Museum in Blaenavon; and development of the new National Waterfront Museum in Swansea.
