From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Limpert Bay (Welsh: Bae Limpert)[1] is a bay of the Bristol Channel, west of Aberthaw in south-east Wales.

The beach is rock with some sand.[2] There is a guest house[3] and a free car park next to some cottage ruins.[4] An information stand at the beach gives the history of the area, provided by the Heritage Cost.[5]

The Wildlife Trust for Wales has helped record over one thousand species at this location, sixty-two of which are of principal concern to the conservation to the biodiversity of Wales.[6]

History

[edit]
Anti-tank cubes along the coast

During World War II; Limpert Bay's defences formed part of the Western Command's coastal "crust" defences for the Vale of Glamorgan. Defences included anti-tank cubes, pill boxes, and an anti-tank ditch.[7]

Industrial area

[edit]

The beach is next to the decommissioned Aberthaw power stations. Two seawater intakes for the power stations are in the bay.[8] The Aberthaw Cement Works is nearby.
