Brecon, High Street 1955

More about this scene
Brecon is a well-manicured town on the River Usk with a smart range of buildings, mainly of the Georgian and Victorian periods, as we can see here. The military presence in the town and the museum of the South Wales Borderers - even the 13th-century cathedral was semi-fortified, which is most unusual - has perhaps helped maintain a sense of order. The South Wales Borderers were famous for their part in the action at Rorke's Drift in the Zulu Wars. The Brecon Beacons have been used extensively to train troops in the arts of combat simulation and survival techniques.
