movement by people from one place to another with the intention of settling in the new location. The movement is typically over long distances and from one country to another, but internal migration is also possible. Migration may be used to refer to large groups.

TIGER BAY (aka Cardiff Bay)Cardiff's dockland district - is

Wales' oldest multi-ethnic community. Sailors and workers from over 50 countries settled here.

MILLENIUM WALES ART CENTRE

Migration report shows Cardiff is the place to be.

The report suggests as well as students coming to study, work is another major factor in people moving to South Wales, with workers from the EU mirroring the journeys of those who moved to Tiger Bay in the 1950s.

It said: “Eight central and eastern European countries joined the EU in May 2004 and were given the right to work in the UK. This was a key factor in the number of international migrants moving to Wales increasing by 46% between 2005 and 2008.

Cardiff Barrage

The Cardiff Bay Barrage is 1.1km long and extends from Cardiff docks in the north to Penarth in the south. This major civil engineering construction project led to the impoundment of the bay that has over 13km of waterfront.

This 120 million pound project (commenced in 1987) was the start of the 2 billion pound regeneration of the old docklands areas.
