This is the 'Senni Valley Community Website' at http://senni.org.uk/
This website was started in 2005 by two residents of the Upper Senni Valley, David Jordan and Christopher Spry who agreed to design the site and become the webmaster. It has been paid for and maintained by the webmaster since then. It has no commercial or public funding.
This is how it was planned in August 2005:
- It is funded and maintained by the Senni Archive Group.
- The overall control, legal responsibility, management and financing of the web is the responsibility of the Chairman of the Senni Archive Group, with the assistance of other members of the Group. The website is run on a not-for-profit basis. The Chairman has overall responsibility for the accuracy of data in the web and deal with any issues as soon as possible, with the help of the author of the relevant Chapter or subsection and the webmaster.
- The web is an open resource initially. Later, parts may be closed off from the world at large for the use of approved readers and contributors only.
- The web is regularly assessed by the Webmaster to see that it conforms to Government regulations on data protection and legal requirements.
- At this early stage (August 2005) we are identifying the people who will provide the content and updates for each Chapter and subsection in the web. Once they have agreed to do this, they will help to provide the titles and scope of their planned contributions to Chapters and subsections, which will be included in the overall plan of the web. Their names and email addresses, in the form name@senni.org.uk for those who have email access, will be provided with their contributions, if they wish this.
- The web will have English and Welsh language versions of each page. One person will be designated to translate submitted documents in either direction and deal with language issues with the author and others. However, the author of a web page will be responsible for text of the original version, whether in English or Welsh. We are looking for someone to take on this task.
- The Senni Archive Group will also publish in this web archive material that it holds or know about, providing this is in the public domain and/or where the copyright holder or owner has agreed in writing. This might include title deeds to property, photos, documents or items of significance. The web will not only report these items but show how the original material can be viewed, if appropriate and agreed in writing by the owner.
- Information about the Senni valley community may also appear in other printed or
online publications, such as those that are
- Visitors' guides
- Directories of local buildings, farms and other places
- Businesses information
- Government information
- Listings of social and leisure activities
- Lists of community work
Publications from special interest groups
- When these are available online, links to their webs are provided to reduce
both unnecessary duplication and the need to update their content within the
Senni.org.uk website. However, some online resources may be limited in scope,
and some sites may need to be 'archived' for later historical interest, so it
will be worth duplicating information in some external websites, after obtaining
permission from them.
----------- - The webmaster has obtained alternative names for this web: senni.org.uk, senni.uk, senni.wales and senni.cymru
Later, it may be possible to transfer web pages from senni.org.uk to other permanent, archived websites, to keep the main Senni valley web of a manageable size.- Currently (20/02/2022) the website is over 240-MB.
Name | Count | Size | Description |
Folders | 648 | 240 MB | All directories & files in the current Web |
Pictures | 1,077 | 158 MB | Picture files in the current Web (GIF, JPG, BMP, etc.) |
Hyperlinks | 6715 | All hyperlinks in the current Web | |
External hyperlinks | 159 | Hyperlinks pointing to files outside of the current Web | |
Internal hyperlinks | 6556 | Hyperlinks pointing to other files within the current Web |
- Nine Chapters with up to four nested subsections are provided for the web to give a broad framework. Further work will be done to improve the overall structure of the web as we learn how it is being used and as we learn its strengths and weaknesses.
- At this stage, it is important to identify areas of community interest, to plan Chapters and subsections so that possible overlaps are reduced to a minimum and to allow for development without the need to restructure the web.
- In 2005, Emily Spry has suggested that we should find out who in the Senni valley has internet access and whether (how) they would like to contribute to the web and we should ask children who may have IT projects at School and their teachers if they would like to have a project that can contribute to the web. Their later involvement would determine the long-term future of the web.
