Nearby, the South Wales Borderers Museum tells the story a local regiment that has been involved with great distinction in every major campaign and war. This is a great display of artefacts, including over 3,000 medals. Meanwhile, at Tretower Court and Castle, you can see sumptuous living, Middle Ages-style, and the home of the poet, Henry Vaughan. There's a well-restored court and a recreated medieval garden.
