Brecon History
Brecon is a market town and community located in Powys, Wales. Its history dates back to the Roman occupation of Britain, as the town is located on the site of a Roman fort. In the 11th century, the Normans built a castle in Brecon, which became an important strategic point in the Welsh Marches.
During the Middle Ages, Brecon grew as a center of trade and commerce, and in the 16th and 17th centuries, it became known for its woolen industry. The town was also a center of political and religious activity during the English Civil War and the subsequent Commonwealth period.
