The Enigmatic Boys Village St. Athens Revealed
Philanthropist David Davies, 1st Baron Davies of Llandinam and president of the Ocean Coal Company and his Welfare Officer Captain J. Glynn Jones, co-founders of the Boys' Clubs of Wales were first inspired to build a holiday camp for the sons of miners from the South Wales Coalfield in the early 1920s after attending a youth camp in Kent.[1] Opened on August 8, 1925, the camp offered them an escape from the polluted and unhealthy atmosphere of Valleys industrial towns and a place to play and be free, as well as being close to the nearby beach.[1]

Cilgerran Castle stands on a precipitous, craggy promontory overlooking the river Teifi where it merges with the Plysgog stream. The Teifi here is just at its tidal limit, so the castle was able to control both a natural crossing point and the passage of seagoing ships. We cannot be sure when this strong site was first fortified. It may be the same time as a Norman castle called 'Cenarth Bychan...

    oh wow i googled it based off the castles name, and man, what a swanky pad. add a small industrial arts cottage at the back end of the property for glass and ceramic arts as a sort of lords folly for me, and hire up a solid farming crew, and do up lots of green energy, and man, that would even today be an amazing and self sufficient property times a thousand. the social order might not have been remotely fair, but it sure sure spit out some amazing craftsmanship. those old time workers were so so good, god bless their memories.

      @joshschneider9766 Před 2 měsíci

      just imagining the potential of a property like that run under todays rules of work and environmental care and so forth has my mind racing alright. so much slumbering potential locked in there. Not that id knock down the ruins, but I comprehend why they had a more clinical view towards architectural latest and greatest stuff. they had a work force that was second to none in all fields. as a glassblower myself every time i see an empty window in a place like this a cant help but grin, knowing one of my predecessors had paid work. such wonderful places, even in ruins they fire the imagination like cannon shot.

    The green fencing is to either prevent incursion into an area from small mammals, usually protected rodents and or amphibians; or to contain small mammals, protected rodents and or amphibians within an area; or to allow passage of protected species, while preventing them into what would be a danger area for those species. The erection and placement of such fencing, is often a legal requirement, if the landscape is to be changed and or building works are to be carried out. Where such works and areas border land inhabited by said animals. Unfortunately, the checking of the continuation, stability and condition of such fencing and the animals the fencing is meant to protect. Is usually less important to contractors and landowners, than the initial placement and that box ticked. Fencing is not just for people. And is in most use-ages, either to contain, segregate or protect livestock and or wildlife.
