Take the Agincourt trail

BUILDING on the success of last year’s 600th anniversary commemoration of the Battle of Agincourt (1415), a new trail has been developed to mark #Agincourt connections with Breconshire, Monmouthshire, and the Forest of Dean. The Agincourt #Wales Trail links eight locations, telling the stories of the people and places that played a role in the battle. 

The Agincourt 600 Commemorative Fund has worked with the Woodland Trust to plant trees at many of the locations, to create a permanent memorial. In addition to the tree plantings, there are panels providing information on local links with the battle at these locations:

Abergavenny – Abbott’s Garden, St Mary’s Priory Church
Brecon – The Promenade
Caldicot Castle
Monmouth Castle
Raglan Castle
St Briavels – The Tump opposite St Briavels Castle
Trecastle Village Hall
Tretower Court and Castle
