Battle of Bryn Glas
The Battle of Bryn Glas, (sometimes referred to in English accounts as the Battle of Pilleth - although Bryn Glas translates as green or blue hill) was fought on 22 June 1402, near the towns of Knighton and Presteigne in Powys. It was a great victory for the Welsh rebels under Owain Glyndŵr, and it resulted in the prolongation of the Welsh rebellion and the destabilisation of English politics for several years afterwards.
Pilleth
Pilleth is a small village south of Knighton in Powys, Wales. It is the site of the ancient church and holy well of St. Mary’s which stands on Bryn Glas Hill overlooking the River Lugg, as it makes it way to Presteigne.
Knill
Knill is a village and civil parish in Herefordshire, England. Recorded in the Domesday Book (1086) as Chenille (from the Old English meaning 'Place by the hillock') the little village of Knill sits just inside the Herefordshire side of the border with Wales, 4.5 km south west of Presteigne and very much in 'The Marches' as these borderlands are known.
Burfa Castle
Burfa Castle (of Burfa Camp) was a hillfort defensive fortification near the tiny town of Old Radnor in Radnorshire, Wales. It lies near the Burfa Bog Nature Reserve and an Iron Age barrow. Little remains of the hillfort today save a ditch above a steep bank. On the side of the hillfort's likely entrance are three or four banks and ditches, "incorporating a torturous entrance approach," according to the Royal Commission on the Ancient and Historical Monuments of Wales.
