I
have only introduced three places of interest into this section,
however, all three are places that are embedded in the history
of my nation.
Aberffraw
on Anglesey, because
of its involvement with the ancient Kings and Princes of Wales
Brecon,
because of both its 'bloody' past and its military connections,
for it seems that the town will for ever be involved with armed
struggles around the world. It has recently been announced that
one of its military installations, because of the proximity of
a large training area, is to become the home for training infantry
Officers. A long time to be associated with arms 1100 to 2005
Fishguard,
the only place where foreign troops actively
engaged in an act of war, have landed upon British soil since
the Norman did in 1066.
