Historic Houses in Wales
Historic Houses in Wales, such as Tredegar House and Erddig are listed below. A proud and independent nation where the Welsh language is the first language of many, particularly in the north and west. There is a strong tradition of choral singing, and the Welsh love of music in all its forms.
