Brecon (Welsh: Aberhonddu) is a historic market town in mid Wales, with a population of roughly 8,000 with around 6,000 in the surrounding area. It is the traditional county town of Brecknockshire, although its role as a county town has diminished since the formation of Powys. It is said that the name 'Brecon' derives from the Welsh Prince, Brychan.
Brecon is the English name for the town, the Welsh name, Aberhonddu, deriving from the River Honddu, which empties into the River Usk near the town centre, a short distance away from the River Tarrell which enters the Usk a few hundred metres upstream. Before the building of the bridge over the Usk, Brecon was one of the few places where the river could be forded. The confluence of the Honddu and the Usk made for a valuable defensive position for the Norman castle which overlooks the town, built by Bernard de Neufmarche in the late 11th century.
