Tregaron
Tregaron is an old market town in Ceredigion, Wales, astride the River Brenig, a tributary of the River Teifi. Tregaron is 11 miles (18 kilometres) northeast of Lampeter. According to the 2011 Census, the population of the ward of Tregaron was 1,213 as well as 67% of the population might talk Welsh. Tregaron is an area. The church is committed to St Caron. He was a male of lowly origins yet "his courage and also charitable deportment acquired him the sovereignty in Wales: he made war against the Romans, reigned seven years as well as was buried in Tregarron".: He is probably the exact same individual as Carausius that took power in Britain in 286 as well as was executed in 293 by Allectus (additionally see Carausian Revolt). A very early Christian stone slab birthing the name Carausius and also the Chi Rho icon is preserved in Penmachno. The church has a tower and also depends on a rough eminence. It includes an easy nave and chancel. Various other noteworthy structures in the town include the 13th-century Talbot Hotel, which supposedly has an elephant buried in its premises. The remote chapel Soar y mynydd is close to Tregaron. In March, 1977, a home near Tregaron was one target of an Operation Julie cops raid in which large amounts of the drug LSD were seized. Close-by Cors Caron (Tregaron Bog), is known for its adders, buzzards, red kites, as well as polecats. The River Brenig is kept in mind for its brown trout as well as eels. The river has actually been the subject of dredging and flood-protection works to provide 1-in-100-year flooding security to the community and boost the atmosphere for wildlife along a stretch of river.
