Monmouth is a quaint yet friendly market town and is one of Britainn++s ancient shire towns, situated on the wide green valley bottom between the famous Wye and equally well known Monnow.  The town is guarded by a unique 13th century fortified gateway bridge which crosses the latter river, whilst the streets retain their medieval plan which is now thought, dates back to Roman times.

Today Monmouth is a busy retail centre with much of its origins being traced back to its links with agriculture, but has in more recent times, attracted a diverse range of light industry together with a good range of shops. With the A40 trunk road passing its periphery, it commands rapid access to both South Wales and the industrial Midlands.  With the original Severn Bridge (16 miles to the South) at Chepstow, the Home Counties and West of England may be reached easily.  However it is the superb educational facilities which attract many to live around Monmouth.
