What is recorded here

Castle Street in Brecon holds a Post Medieval garden wall, marking the boundary between private cultivation and public passage. The stones likely separated household plots from the busy road, forcing neighbours to share air, noise and rain while keeping their gardens distinct. That simple line still shapes the street, reminding residents that even small walls draw visible borders between domestic life and the wider town.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castle Street, Brecon as Garden Wall from the Post Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
