Description
The ancient town of Brecon was originally enclosed within the walls of a Norman castle. Today it has evolved into a pleasant market town in a unique setting in the heart of National Parkland. Here you can visit the promenade, take to the waters of the beautiful River Usk or stroll along narrow streets with the most wonderful of names, see relics from Brecon's once thriving Flannel Industry, and wonder at the magnificent Cathedral and the peace of the Priory Groves.With an abundance of rare and some quite ancient photographs together with modern interpretations in beautiful colour Brecon Through Time has so much to offer visitors and residents. This town, with its history and military background, is unique in the whole of Wales. Connect with its warmth and charm, its inhabitants and its hidden gems. You never know, you may even meet a real time traveller!
