Noise at bomb testing site to be surveyed after resident petition | This is South Wales
Noise at bomb testing site to be surveyed after resident petition | This is South Wales: "BOMB testing noise levels in Pendine will be surveyed this summer after Ferryside residents petitioned the UK Government.
Angry residents presented a petition of 250 signatures to Jonathan Edwards MP in March, which he in turn took to Westminster.
Residents in Ferryside and Llangain complained earlier in the year about the noise levels creating vibrations in their homes, with some houses suffering cracked window frames and broken trinkets.
They formed STIFLE (St Ishmael's Fights Large Explosions), an action group campaigning for the testing of the bombs to be redirected away from their homes.
Delme Bowen, a member of STIFLE, said: "It's excellent, I think Jonathan Edwards has done a great deal in being persistent about this request, and a lot of residents like Richard Leverson have delivered the goods on this."

The children's entertainment was free and included circus skills, Battlefield Live, It's a Knockout, and face painting. There were health and wellbeing stalls, local produce sales, a kids' disco, a hog roast and live bands."
Organiser Tim McDermott said: "This has been one of the most successful events I have ever been involved with in Pendine. Every café and shop had queues of people. I have never seen so many people in Pendine.
"I think the businesses would have done well. It was all about family entertainment and there was plenty of that. We were promised a lot by Carmarthenshire Council, but they disappointed us in the end. Our local council were far more supportive."
Pat Leefe, of the Beach Hotel, said: "It has been an amazing day out for the children. There have been crowds here all day and we had to work hard to provide all the food. It has been a great success thanks to all the people who put in such hard work."
Meanwhile in Laugharne celebrations were low key by day but picked up in the evening with the lighting of the beacon on the castle. Large crowds gathered to watch and were entertained with music and food. Mayor of Laugharne John Lynch said: "It has been a great weekend in Laugharne with plenty of visitors. The lighting of the beacon was the highlight and it was part of a number of similar beacons being lit all across the country."
In St Clears there were picnics in the park, a street party and a torch relay through the streets culminating in the lighting of a beacon atop of the town's Norman Castle. The shops along Pentre Road were decorated with Union Jacks and Welsh flags and a competition was held for best decorated shop and business premises.

Passionate opposition | This is South Wales
Passionate opposition | This is South Wales: "Later on, when he climbs Foel Cwm Cerwyn , the highest point in the Preseli Hills, not far from his Welsh bolt-hole, and looks north eastwards across the rolling hills of Cymru Fach, he will clearly see the latest part-time revolving monsters of Brechfa Forest, only 35 miles away, in addition to existing ones at Llanboidy, Pendine, Newcastle Emlyn and Pencader, industrialising the supposed "garden of Wales"!"
