More about this scene
Tregaron is a small nucleated town, probably based on a Welsh maerdref where the lord held court. It grew rapidly during the early 19th century, when it became a popular meeting place for drovers. The railway took this trade away after it arrived in 1866, but it brought other advantages for the local population. The medieval church tower rises in the centre, and one of the two large non-conformist chapels stands to its right. The town also had two primary schools, one run by the church, the other by the chapel. The former is now the popular Red Kite Centre and Museum.
