Tregaron
Tregaron is an ancient market community in Ceredigion, Wales, astride the River Brenig, a tributary of the River Teifi. Tregaron is 11 miles (18 km) northeast of Lampeter. According to the 2011 Census, the population of the ward of Tregaron was 1,213 and 67% of the population might speak Welsh. Tregaron is a community. The church is committed to St Caron. He was a man of lowly origins however "his courage and generous deportment obtained him the sovereignty in Wales: he made war versus the Romans, ruled seven years and was hidden in Tregarron".: He is probably the exact same individual as Carausius who took power in Britain in 286 and also was assassinated in 293 by Allectus (likewise see Carausian Revolt). A very early Christian stone slab birthing the name Carausius and the Chi Rho sign is maintained in Penmachno. The church has a tower and depends on a rough reputation. It contains a straightforward nave and chancel. Various other significant structures in the town consist of the 13th-century Talbot Hotel, which supposedly has actually an elephant buried in its grounds. The remote church Soar y mynydd is close to Tregaron. In March, 1977, a cottage near Tregaron was one target of an Operation Julie police raid in which vast quantities of the drug LSD were taken. Nearby Cors Caron (Tregaron Bog), is known for its adders, buzzards, red kites, as well as polecats. The River Brenig is noted for its brown trout and eels. The river has been the topic of dredging and flood-protection works to provide 1-in-100-year flood protection to the town and also boost the setting for wildlife along a stretch of river.
