The T14 TrawsCymru Bus runs from Hereford Railway station to Hay-on-Wye, Brecon, Merthyr Tydfil, Pontypridd and Cardiff. Hereford railway station which is run by Trafnidiaeth Cymru/Transport for Wales with the infrastructure run by Network Rail.
Frank travels on the T14 TrawsCymru/Stagecoach in South Wales service towards Talgarth from the Hereford direction. The first T14 passes the other one in Dorstone in Herefordshire.
Frank alights in Talgarth. Talgarth is where Frank starts his trekking heading towards Trefeca, Trefeinion and Llangorse. Frank visits the Church of St Paulinus and the Welsh Crannog Centre on Llangorse Lake.
On his way Frank visits the birthplace and home of the 18th-century Methodist leader Howell Harris (1714-1773), (Welsh: Hywel Harris). It was also the site of two Calvinistic Methodist colleges at different times; the first sponsored by Selina, Countess of Huntingdon (an English methodist leader) in the late eighteenth century; the second supported by the Welsh Calvinistic Methodist Connexion in the later nineteenth century.
In 1752, Harris, who was born in Trefeca and was one of the foremost leaders of the Welsh Methodist revival, established a Christian community there known as Teulu Trefeca ('the Trefeca Family'), modelled on the Moravian Herrnhutt community of Count von Zinzendorf.
John Wesley preached for Harris's 'family' when visiting Trevecca in August 1769 for the first anniversary of Trevecca College.
In 1872 a Harris Memorial Chapel was added to Trefeca, designed by R. G. Thomas of Menai Bridge. The building is now Coleg Trefeca, a lay training centre for the Presbyterian Church of Wales.
Frank continues towards Trefeinion and the majestic sight of the ridge of the Brecon Beacons comes into sight. The highest mountain in South Wales being Pen-y-Fan comes into view. The Brecon Beacon escapement with the highest mountain in South Wales at Pen y Fan, which has an elevation of 886 metres (2,907 ft). The Black Mountains are seen on the way towards Llangorse. The Llangorse Lake is drained by the Afon Llynfi, which is the tributary of the River Wye/Afon Gwy.
Frank can feel the gradual downward slope from Trefeinion in Llangors.
Upon entering Llangorse a Mineral Wagon is seen perhaps from one of the Coal Mines from the South Wales Coalfield.
Frank visited St Paulinus Church, which is in the Church in Wales Diocese of Swansea and Brecon.
Frank visits the Welsh Crannog Centre which are Irish Lake dwellings. This one being in the former Kingdom of Brycheiniog.
This walk is 5 miles (8 km) long walk from Talgarth to Llangorse Lake.
Mostly while walking a some cars and motorbikes being the main forms of motor vehicles being encountered on the road. The odd light van and HGV was passed walking along the road. The verges were on most of the road but some places had hedges right next to the metalled road. In terms of safety this walk was generally fine. Most vehicle drivers moved out wide 1.5 M but not all. Frank walked along the B4560 road.
This walk is in the historic Welsh county of Brecknockshire which in part of Powys. Powys includes Brecknockshire, Radnorshire and Montgomeryshire.
