Rhayader (Rare-der) is just under an hour from you. There's a Red Kite Feeding Centre where you can watch red kites being fed and earn all about the birds being re-introduced. Dwindling towards disappearance in the mid 80s but spectacularly re-introduced and now an official symbol of Powys.
Not a lot otherwise in town but a beautiful drive & countryside.
After there go for lunch in Llanidloes- a real foodie town and probably my favourite in mid-Wales. It's a rural place- I remember parking up there in a street just behind the High Street and being bellowed at by a very vocal donkey, who I had disturbed from a large pile of carrot peelings.
If you're feeling adventurous there's the Centre for Alternative Technology in Machynlleth but may be that's a bit far away. Machynlleth is an interesting place.
Probably (as it was largely written based on memories / lived experience in Y Fenni / Abergavenny) time to re-visit Raymond Williams' The Country and the City.

Was in Y Fenni/ Aber yesterday. Turns out Monday is closing day for all the interesting shops and cafes. Ah well.
Funnily enough I reread the Country and the City during lock down.

If you look closely you can see the swinging pocket watch reflected in their eyes

What I didn’t know is that butter in Wales comes from kidnapped racehorses.

I want to make it clear that the dogs are absolutely being fed enough, so ignore their shit…

I’m in Filth Wells. I like the cut of their jibs.
