Planning for development: thematic geology maps Bridgend Area

This report summarises the work carried out during Phase 4 of a contract (PECD 7/1/004) commissioned by the Department of the Environment for the Welsh Otlice. The objectives of Phase 4 were to provide an up-to-date geological base in the form of thematic geology maps as a guide to planning for future development within the Bridgend and Llantrisant areas. It follows directly from a pilot study of the Bridgend area during Phase 1 (Fletcher, C. J. N., and others, 1982), which developed techniques and explored the potential of thematic geology maps for this area
