I am doing an archaeology project on castles in the Black Mountains, centring on Tretower, Bronllys and castles in that area. Now a little stuck on info!! Does anyone know anything about these castles or the surrounding area? Would be very greatful of any info people have.
Thanks,

Sarah

Hi Sarah,

Thanks! You've just reminded me of a great web site that I've not visited for ages: The Castles of Wales

Not sure if it is detailed enough for your purposes though. It certainly covers Bronllys.

Sorry, nothing to do with wildlife, but if you are interested in archaeology, I hope you remembered to watch Time Team last night! I thought it was one of their most interesting excavations ever!

Oh, I missed it!! Bother. We keep on forgetting it's on. It's fun when they're using all their technical terms and I know what their on about!!

I wander if it'll be on any other channel?

Just a little question, anyone know where the Powys SMR (Sites and Monuments Record) is? I know there is one, go the number for Tretower etc, but I can't find the office!! It's as if it's completely disappeared!!

If anone does know I would be soooooooooooo greatful!
