Carmarthenshire

But in early 1644, parliamentarians conducted a successful sea and land assault campaign on Pembroke, Haverford West, Milford Pill, and continuing on to Swansea and Cardiff.

As a result of these royalist failures, the King replaced Carberry with Colonel Charles Gerard, 1st Earl of Macclesfield, who was able to regain many of these lost territories in Cardiganshire and Carmarthenshire.

On September 18th, 1644, the first pitched battle on Welsh soil at Montgomery was a successful win for Middleton.

On August 1st, 1645, the royalist forces were once again defeated at Colby Moor.

I mean, if we come back to just the local for the moment, I'm working with Food, Farm and Countryside Commission on a project called Growing Regional Integrated Food Economies.

So we're proposing to have these projects in Cumbria, Cornwall, Lincolnshire, Fife, Northern Ireland and in Carmarthenshire, Wales.

So we're looking at... saying, this is going to be aiming, looking at the barriers that stop farmers producing food alongside environmental outcomes, but also making sure if they get, they have routes to market in a fair price.

But then if we, that's from the farmer perspective, but turning, I do say on its head, if we have those resilience and more uh in a sense you know fragmented system is that actually that is provides resilience because you haven't got those interdependencies where one computer system goes down the whole country goes down these whatever it is 131 distribution points for food in you know in the uk um that are often highly interlinked and we saw that recently last week i couldn't get onto a bank because you know the google cloud had gone down and i couldn't do a bank transfer you know we know that's happening in food systems so for me working on having that regional integration.

Margaret was a 26-year-old domestic servant from Carmarthenshire who was working in Caddickston on a farm.

She became pregnant and left the farm, and it's not known, though, if she left on her own accord or if she was thrown out.

She began lodging with an old man near to the center of town, and on July 13, 1822, she was last seen walking into town where she bought a sheep's head.
