"We have had a problem with noise from the flat above us in Lady Isle House Ferry Court Cardiff. We contacted a Mr Paul Staniforth who immediately became involved and addressed the situation. We really do appreciate what he has done for us and cannot thank him enough. Once again a big thank you to Mr Staniforth. The noise above was intolerable."

Things to do in Plymouth
Plymouth- Cultural Scene
Plymouth, a city located on the southern coast of Devon, England, has a rich and very old history dating back years. Plymouth was famous for its strategic naval importance for England and was the centre of the maritime breakthroughs of England, global discovery, and military defence.
Early Beginnings
The first settlements of Plymouth are the Bronze Age, with the archaeological remains that point to the presence of mankind in the estuaries of the rivers Plym and Tamar. The area underwent a major development process during the Roman era, but it did not manage to become a bustling settlement before a long time.
The Medieval Era
After the middle Ages, Plymouth grew from being a small fishing port into a town teeming with various activities, including the harbour. By the 13th century, it was the major point of departure for the merchants, and the base of the fishermen. Plymouth was characterized as a borough in 1439 by the King of England, King Henry VI, who gave the borough its own government and the right to trade themselves.
The Age of Exploration
The 16th century is considered as the peak of Plymouth history, notably, due to Sir Francis Drake's acclaim, the English seaman of fame. Thus, it was from Plymouth where Drake set out on his voyage round the world in 1577--1580, thus, setting a record as the first Englishman to do so. The city was also the starting place of other major ship trips, among which depicting the Mayflower ship's voyage in 1620. It was carrying the Pilgrims to North America, thus making an eternal connection with the foundation of America.
Naval Significance and Fortifications
From the end of the 1600s to the 18th century, Plymouth was a key naval dockyard for the British naval fleet, which was created to serve Britain as the sea power of the world. The city is among the principal military harbours of England, which are extensively fortified to prevent any invasion, especially during the periods of the Anglo-French wars. The Plymouth Royal Naval Dockyard, which was renamed Devonport later, was one of the biggest in Europe and a very important factor during the Napoleonic Wars and both wars.
World Wars and Reconstruction
The city of Plymouth was heavily bombed during World War II due to its vulnerable naval location. The Blitz left the city in a very bad condition, in fact, much of the city was destroyed. Post-war rebuilding efforts in Plymouth converted the city into a modern urban centre where it stands today as a blend of old and new architecture. It was designed by the architect Patrick Abercrombie and it had a new city centre layout that is in use till date which incorporates the new and the historical architecture.
Modern Plymouth
Today, Plymouth is a lively city that is strongly bound to the maritime heritage and culture. It became a centre for marine research, education, and the arts, hosting national events and being a portal to the Devon and Cornwall beautiful landscapes. On the one hand, the cities historical places such as the Plymouth Hoe and the Royal Citadel, which are the main attractions to visitors from all over the world, remain unchanged, while on the other hand, its universities and maritime industries are the main factors that shape the city's future.
