*************
Barry (Welsh: Y Barri pronounced [ə ˈbarɪ]) is a town in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, on the north coast of the Bristol Channel approximately 9 miles (14 km) south-southwest of Cardiff. Barry is a seaside resort, with attractions including several beaches and the resurrected Barry Island Pleasure Park. According to Office for National Statistics 2016 estimate data, the population of Barry was 54,673.
Once a small village, Barry has absorbed its larger neighbouring villages of Cadoxton and Barry Island, and now, Sully. It grew significantly from the 1880s with the development of Barry Docks, which in 1913 was the largest coal port in the world.[2]
The area now occupied by Barry has seen human activity in many periods of history. Mesolithic or Middle Stone Age microlith flint tools have been found at Friars Point on Barry Island and near Wenvoe[5] and Neolithic or New Stone Age polished stone axe-heads were discovered in St. Andrews Major.[6] A cinerary urn (pottery urn buried with cremation ashes) was found on Barry Island during excavations of Bronze Age barrows[7][8] and two more were found in a barrow at Cold Knap Point.[9] A large defended enclosure or Iron Age promontory hillfort was located at the Bulwarks at Porthkerry[10] and there was evidence of the existence of an early Iron Age farmstead during construction of Barry College off Colcot Road.[11]
Cold Knap is a district of Barry in South Wales.
Amenities
Cold Knap is a coastal pebble beach (with some sand at low tide),[1] approximately a mile west of the sandy beach at Barry Island, which attracts visitors during the summer months. It extends generally westwards towards Porthkerry from Cold Knap Point.[2] It was founded by the Romans who used it as a port, and the remains of a Roman building here are now a scheduled monument.[3]
Attractions include a lake shaped like a Welsh harp and a skate park. There was previously an outdoor swimming pool, but this has now been closed and filled in, and the area turned into a tourist trail. There was a campaign to have the lido rebuilt during 2014 but an enthusiastic online campaign (including a Facebook campaign group ("Rebuild the Knap Lido") has not been successful, despite a number of celebrity endorsements (including local BBC weatherman Derek Brockway).[4]
Cold Knap Lake is the title and subject of a poem by Gillian Clarke, which has been included in an English literature GCSE syllabus in England.
Cold Knap Point is the site of a sewage pumping station serving Barry.[5]
It was also the location of a case in English contract law - Chapelton v. Barry UDC [1940] 1 KB 532 - where a man's deckchair collapsed.
