Campaign for the Protection of Rural Wales

The Brecon and Radnor Branch of CPRW covers the old historic counties of Brecknock and Radnorshire. Rural and sparsely populated, mountainous to the south, this area contains few towns of size. Rural towns, villages and scattered settlements are set within the landscapes of broad, sweeping uplands and fertile valleys of the Beacons and Black Mountains, and the rolling hills of Radnorshire. A large part of the Brecon Beacons National Park, administered by the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority, lies within this area, the remainder of which is administered by Powys County Council, the largest unitary authority (by land area) in Wales.
