Abergavenny, a town rich in history and natural beauty. Named after the 5th Earl Abergavenny, this charming place has much to offer. From the magnificent Great Crumlin Viaduct that spans an impressive 1700 feet and stands at a height of 200 feet, to the breathtaking Sugar Loaf Mountain that dominates the skyline. Nestled in Glangrwyney village near Crickhowell, Wales, a picturesque destination that captures the essence of both England and Wales. Its quaint streets are filled with Welsh charm while its architecture reflects English influences. In 1828, Abergavenny was proudly known as part of Wales and remains deeply rooted in Welsh heritage. The Great Crumlin Viaduct stands as a testament to its industrial past when it played a vital role on the Newport, Abergavenny, and Hereford Railway. Even royalty has graced this town's presence - Princess Elizabeth herself visited before becoming Queen Elizabeth II. And speaking of notable figures, let's not forget about Lord Abergavenny's Dark Bay Carriage Horse with his loyal terrier companion immortalized on canvas back in 1785. For those seeking tranquility amidst nature's wonders, Neville Court offers solace within its beautiful gardens located right here in Abergravenny (or should we say Abergavenny?), England. But it's not just history and landscapes that define this town; there is also culture aplenty. Take a stroll through The Asylum where Monmouthshire showcases its artistic side or admire Marquess featured in Vanity Fair by renowned caricaturist Ape.
