Cadw - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Cadw is a semi-autonomous publicly-funded body with the mission to protect, conserve, and to promote the built heritage of Wales — the Welsh equivalent of English Heritage and Historic Scotland. This does not mean that Cadw owns them, but it is responsible for their upkeep and for making them accessible to the public. Cadw is also responsible for "listing" and ensuring the preservation of historic buildings and archaeological sites. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/CADW   (186 words)

House of Commons - Culture, Media and Sport - Appendices to the Minutes of Evidence Cadw acts on behalf of the Secretary of State for Wales in carrying out his statutory responsibilities for the conservation, presentation and promotion of the built heritage of Wales. Cadw is anxious to co-operate with HLF to ensure funding for as many Welsh projects as possible; HLF resources are becoming an increasingly important element of funding for the built heritage of Wales and can often help buildings and projects not eligible for Cadw grant. Cadw has agreed with the HLF areas of the checklist on which it would be appropriate for Cadw to comment. www.parliament.the-stationery-office.co.uk /pa/cm199899/cmselect/cmcumeds/195/195ap08.htm   (573 words)

AM Demands Action to Save Historic Castle According to a new report to councillors, Cadw has agreed to meet the full cost of a survey and experts are considering setting up a Trust with access to grants. One of the problems is that Cadw invariably requires some form of public access to properties receiving grants - and the medieval sections of Ruthin Castle are normally closed to the public. Cadw have responsibilities to protect such structures as Gwrych Castle in Abergele and Ruthin Castle. www.btinternet.com /~bevbaker/gwrychcastlepublications/dailypost4703.html   (465 words)

New Page 1   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07) CADW pointed out that the responsibility for notifying owners, and occupiers of historic buildings that their property had become listed as a building of specialised architectural and historic interest, lay with the local planning authority rather than CADW. CADW assured members that this was not a blanket policy but the re-introduction of a practice which had led, in a number of cases, to a substantial reduction in the ingress of rainwater and the protection of stonework which would otherwise deteriorate more rapidly. It was hoped that CADW would support the request made to the Chancellor to see the eventually agreed rate, applied retrospectively from the date of the Autumn Statement, in order that an anticipated delay in securing a decision from Brussels did not cause a cessation of relevant building works. www.nationalassembly.freeserve.co.uk /Laws.htm   (4499 words)

[No title] Cadw can offer general informal advice on grants and planning controls but, if you plan work to an historic building, the advice of your own architect or surveyor in such work will be invaluable. Cadw places particular importance on the need to preserve outstanding buildings which may currently be in danger of disrepair or dereliction, and is always willing to give priority to buildings at risk which require urgent works. Cadw's target is to give 80 per cent of applicants a decision on grant within eighteen weeks of receipt of a fully completed application form. www.cadw.wales.gov.uk /upload/resourcepool/HB&CAgrants-e3773.html   (3753 words)

Cadw and Castle Conservation As one might expect with such a concentration in one area, castles form a significant portion of the medieval monuments in state care and managed by Cadw, and much of Cadw's ancient monuments grant-aid budget is dedicated to castle conservation. However, this did provide an opportunity for Cadw, and like-minded organisations, to encourage local authorities to place the care of their monuments higher on their agendas and, through scheduled monument consent procedures, ensure that the work was done to an acceptable standard. Cadw will work with private owners, local authorities, national parks, the Countryside Council for Wales and the various funding agencies, such as HLF, to bring all available resources to bear on this problem. www.castlewales.com /cadw_rsk.html   (1242 words)

BBC News | Wales | Cadw 'stuck' with indefinite grants Cadw, the historic monuments body for Wales, is being urged to consider if more grants for Chirk Castle, near Wrexham, can be justified. Under a legally binding agreement Cadw is obliged to fund "in perpetuity" to the National Trust the difference between the cost of running the 14th century fortress and the income received from visitors.

CTW | Historic Environment Policy in Wales The Trust is a long-standing partner of Cadw, which has provided core funded our services for over ten years, and has consistently recognised the importance of the voluntary network of civic societies in Wales. We also take a broader look at Cadw's successes in meeting the stringent targets set for it; we believe its record of achievement is significant, and that where it has disappointed, it has often been a consequence of underfunding and consequent lack of staffing and resources. Despite the excellent work done by Cadw, there is a much broader agenda that now deserves consideration, one that goes beyond Cadw's limited remit as it was defined in the early 1980s, and in which the roles of local government, agencies, the private and voluntary sectors, and government itself all need to be considered. www.civictrustwales.org /h_e_policy.htm   (468 words)
