    4-Night Brecon Beacons Family Walking Adventure Tour Style: Family Walking Holidays Destinations: Brecon Beacons & Wales Trip code: BRFAM-4 1, 2 & 3 HOLIDAY OVERVIEW The Brecon Beacons National Park protects an upland area of moorland, waterfalls and lakes and is designated an International Dark Sky Reserve. The area has a wonderful selection of walking options from level walks on high ridges to more challenging walks ascending the ‘Fans’ (peaks). There are gushing waterfalls (one of which you can walk behind!), impressive caves and even fossilised seabed, high in the hills. Walks take place in and around the park, ranging from easy strolls alongside rivers and past cascading waterfalls to more serious treks including to the top of Pen-y-Fan, South Wales’ highest peak. The Brecon Canal is a reminder of the area’s industrial heritage while ruined castles tell of bygone struggles for power. WHAT'S INCLUDED • Full Board en-suite accommodation. • Max guests in house: 57 • Family rooms: 7 • A full programme of walks guided by HF Leaders www.hfholidays.co.uk PAGE 1 [email protected] Tel: +44(0) 20 3974 8865 • All transport to and from the walks • Free Wi-Fi TRIP SUITABILITY This trip is graded Activity Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3.

  • Landscape Character Area 11: EASTERN USK VALLEY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER AREA 11: EASTERN USK VALLEY Broad Landscape Type: SETTLED VALLEYS
    Landscape Character Area 11: EASTERN USK VALLEY LANDSCAPE CHARACTER AREA 11: EASTERN USK VALLEY Broad Landscape Type: SETTLED VALLEYS Description Location and Context This linear LCA includes the floor and lower sides of the Usk Valley. It extends from Pencelli to the eastern edge of the National Park near Abergavenny, and includes several settlements including Crickhowell, Talybont and Bwlch. It has nine adjacent LCAs, including the high land of the Central Beacons to the west and the Black Mountains to the east. Summary Description This settled, luxuriant valley contrasts with the surrounding open and craggy hills. Its wide, flat valley floor with its patchwork of fields is an important transport route, containing main roads and the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. A fertile, agricultural landscape, the Usk Valley is also strongly influenced by parkland planting and in places is densely wooded. The valley has a long history of settlement, and contains several villages, numerous farms and country houses with their associated grounds. A series of Iron Age hillforts overlook the valley, and the southern part has industrial links with the Clydach Gorge and Blaenavon Industrial Landscape World Heritage Site. The Usk Valley west of Crickhowell Historical Development of the Landscape The development of this landscape reflects its strategic role as a key route and transport corridor over millennia, as well as its long use for traditional agriculture and industry. Iron Age hillforts are prominent on the valley sides, with later defensive features including a series of Medieval mottes and castles such as Tretower. Villages developed at crossing points of the river, with some historic bridges surviving.

  • A History of Usk the Roman Legionary Fortress of Burrium Was Founded on the Site of Usk in 55 AD
    A History of Usk The Roman Legionary Fortress of Burrium was founded on the site of Usk in 55 AD. It was the earliest legionary fortress in Wales. However, by 75AD the Romans had relocated their permanent base to Caerleon, seven miles away. Usk continued to be occupied as a civilian settlement with evidence of iron working. By the twelfth Century the town had been turned into a stronghold with a hilltop castle and a medieval street plan. As well as this, during 1170 a Benedictine priory was founded and the remains of this are still retained in the church of Saint Mary. Richard de Clare the second Earl of Pembroke built Usk Castle as part of their family’s plans to control the areas resources and people. 1402 saw the Welsh revolt during which much of the town was destroyed. Owain Glyndwr burned Usk to the ground in his quest to take control of much of South Wales from the English King Henry IV and his son King Henry V. The battle of Pwll Melyn in 1405 occurred north of Usk Castle, causing a substantial loss of life. After their defeat, 300 welsh prisoners were executed in front of the castle. From 1431, William ap Thomas seized Usk. His son William Herbert carried out improvements at the castle including installing large windows and fireplaces. However, following the death of Herbert during the Battle of Edgecote, the castle began to decline. In 1933, the Humphreys family purchased the castle for the sum of £525.00; with this they received one donkey and one flag.

  • Family History and Genealogy
    THE PROLEGOMENON: FAMILY HISTORY AND GENEALOGY (Collected Family Charts are found on www.aias.us on my personal page accessible from the home page by clicking on “Myron Evans”). Appendices are being added gradually with details (see end of this file). In the direct line, my paternal great great grandfather, Edward Evans, is recorded in the 1851 Census as having been born in Llanigon in Powys in 1812. However this is a recorder’s error, the correct date from other records should be about 1802. My cousin Chris Davies kindly provided his date of death, 1874 in Cleirwy. Llanigon is a small village near Gelli Gandryll (Hay on Wye), founded perhaps in the sixth century by the British Celtic St. Eigon. It was a centre of Dissenter learning for leading figures such as Howell Harris and William Williams Pant y Celyn. The 1841 Census records a labourer called Edward Evans, aged 40, living at “Great Hendon” in Llowes, just across the river Wye from Llanigon, and just south of Cleirwy, with two sons, Richard aged 12 and William aged 11. Also recorded there is Esther Beavan, aged 60, possibly the mother of his deceased wife. In the 1851 Census for Cleirwy he is recorded as aged 39 (sic), but from other records this a recorder’s error, and the age should have been 49. At the time (1851) he was a widower and was recorded as a farm servant working on a 70 acre farm called “Cwm” owned by 35 year old James Morgan and situated near Cleirwy. The latter is recorded as employing one labourer, Edward Evans, and James Morgan originated in Brilley in Hereford, just across the border and five miles from Cleirwy, now in Powys.
