Land Occupation and
Low Impact Dwelling Convention
in Pembrokeshire National Park



Easter Weekend 8 -13 April



TONY WRENCH¹S
ROUNDHOUSE
MUST NOT BE DEMOLISHED




Tony Wrench of Brithdir Mawr has been ordered to pull his turf-roofed
roundhouse down by Pembrokeshire National Park Planning authority. After
paying £1000 of fines, he is planning to take it down over Easter.
His eco-house is a national treasure, a historic relic and an inspiration
to thousands of other people. It must be preserved.
Meanwhile, in a gobsmackingly blatant display of double standards, the
Park¹s planning committee have given outline permission to Alfred
McAlpine to erect 350 holiday chalets imported from Estonia and 60
holiday flats at his ³Bluestones² site in the Park.
You are invited to join our Easter protest camp in the Park, to persuade
Tony to change his mind and the planners to change their policies.

Planning Hypocrisy



REFUSED: Tony Wrench¹s turf-roofed ecohouse on the farm where he and his
partner Jane Faith tend woodlands, keep goats and grow vegetables. The
house was only discovered after two years when a survey plane spotted the
reflection of a solar panel. Recently, 30,000 people e-mailed BBC¹s Open
Country to say that it should not be demolished.
ALLOWED: The Bluestones enclave of 340 imported wooden chalets, plus a
³traditional² village of 60 studio flats, only accessible to paying
guests. The Campaign for the Protection of Rural Wales have described it
as a ³new settlement of up to 2000 residents and 5,000 day visitors . . .
The permanent dwellings would take up nearly all of one year¹s allocation
for new housing in the Park² .




A CAMP WILL BE SET UP AT AN AS YET UNDISCLOSED LOCATION IN THE
PEMBROKESHIRE COAST NATIONAL PARK
