Description

Chepstow's strategic location by the River Wye has shaped its history from an early Iron Age Welsh settlement to the present day. This town's story is one of occupation and invasion, with the Norman castle still standing above it. Secret Chepstow explores the town's past, revealing unusual stories and hidden historical buildings along the way. From its origins as a border settlement to the construction of the castle and the impact of major roads and railways, the book delves into the lesser-known aspects of Chepstow's history. It is a story of people and places that have been overlooked or forgotten over time. This book will appeal to anyone interested in the history of Monmouthshire town and its unique place in the region's past.
