The patterns represented are Irregular fieldscape (40 areas), Regular fieldscape (12 areas), Other fieldscape (6 areas), Woodland (7 areas), Marginal land (11 areas), Water & wetland (1 area), Nucleated settlement (14 areas), Non-nucleated settlement (1 area), Extractive industry (1 area), Processing/manufacturing (3 area), Designed landscape (1 area) and Recreational (1 area). Historic Landscape aspect areas were identified using a number of digital and paper data sources, verified by rapid field visiting and drawn as a digital map against a 1:10,000 OS map background attached to a database of supporting information. These digital elements and this Technical Report contain the results of the Montgomeryshire LANDMAP study and were submitted to Powys County Council and the Countryside Council for Wales on completion of the project. Montgomeryshire’s historic landscape has evolved over the course of many millennia and shows considerable variety within one of Wales’ largest historical counties.

After almost six months fairly intensive research, I know more, but realize I have only begun to discover the history and stories of the area. Most people assured me there was very little history in the village – Caratacus’ last stand was very unlikely. Offa’s Dyke was now invisible. The canals, the quarry, and the railways were now defunct. But instead of very little history I found evidence of a long and fascinating past, in this region of mineral wealth on the border between the mountains and the plains. Perhaps every village in the country has a fertile history, once you begin to look for it.
