1. Retain this as a Special Landscape area. If previously considered Special why not now when beauty, tranquility and wonder are in such short supply?

2. Re Consider the retention of all other 17 Special Landscape Areas.

3. Protect these as key landscape views and vistas. Essential to the Welsh culture that has been and is to be handed down through the history of time.

You completely fail to acknowledge the value of the beauty of the Carmarthenshire countryside, particularly that surrounding this often neglected part of the County i.e. Llandovery and its backdrop of rolling uplands and valleys. The Towy valley is unsurpassed in peaceful unspoiled beauty. The heritage, history and culture of this part of Wales is of tremendous value and needs to be preserved and celebrated. I think of future generations who have a right to see the land as it is and with their own eyes thus to learn the continuity and values passed down the generations since even before the Roman occupation.
Llandovery is not the most enlightening town in which to grow up and today's youngsters often are not able to experience travel and its enrichment. However, by looking outwards and even walking for ten minutes they are within the most breathtaking and beautiful environment that mankind could ever imagine. From this, very few will fail to experience a gasp of wonder whilst opening their minds and imaginations to what has come before and is now constant. Each will grasp a sense of security and even magic.

This learning and bond with nature will remain with a child long into adulthood and ensure Wales' nature and uniqueness is handed on with pride from generation to generation.
