First chance to see heritage buildings in 2009

VISITORS will have their first chance this year on Saturday, April 18th to see heritage buildings saved by The Village Alive Trust in the Cross Ash and Llangattock Lingoed area.

As part of the 2009 open day programme visitors can see Cwm Farm Cider House at Llangattock Lingoed; Great Trerhew Barn, Llanvetherine and the Well House at New Inn Farm, Cross Ash. Parishioners will also open the historic, restored St Cadoc’s Church at Llangattock Lingoed and teas will be served.

All the sites will be signposted off the B4521 Abergavenny to Skenfrith road and will be open between 2 and 5pm. If the weather is wet stout footwear may be needed. Parking at Cwm Farm, Llangattock Lingoed is limited and visitors may prefer to park at St Cadoc’s Church and use the footpath down to the farm.

Further information on the buildings and the work of The Village Alive Trust, a local buildings preservation charity, can be found at www.villagealivetrust.org.uk The next public open day will take place on Sunday, July 26th.
