Faterion Hanes - History Matters (WLS)

History Matters is working to develop an education centre in the grounds of Ty Mawr medieval hall nr Castle Caereinon in Mid Wales and has begun a medieval timber framed 'shelter shed' and plans to construct a medieval timber framed barn and kitchen building using traditional tools, materials and methods along with the clay and stone bread ovens and an earth archery butt for longbow shooting. Clients range from community groups, private individuals, and Local Government to Heritage Organisations including the National Trust and English Heritage. A core element of our work is the education department, based at Ty Mawr where we are developing hands on resources for visiting schools.

Volunteering is central to our work and projects have involved members from a wide range of cultural, national and linguistic backgrounds. We also work with the UNA Exchange Wales providing projects for international volunteers.
