The National Park is home to a wide range of important architecture: Norman castles and mediaeval farmhouses, concentrations of 17th and 18th century buildings within the main settlements, and a scatter of very fine rural buildings which often retain original features such as stone tiles, screens and mullioned windows.
The Park’s ecclesiastical architecture is also very rich, with Brecon Cathedral, many important mediaeval churches and some early Nonconformist chapels.
The NPA offers advice and some grant aid, supporting the use of traditional styles, techniques and materials such as lime mortar, oak window frames and authentic paint colours. We work hard to ensure that the heritage of the past is conserved and handed down as far as possible, balancing this with the needs of present and future generations
