Pipton

Description

Pipton is a small settlement and former civil parish in Powys, Wales on the Afon Llynfi near its confluence with the River Wye. It was formerly in the county of Brecknockshire and is now part of the Community of Bronllys. The nearest town is Hay-on-Wye some 5 miles to the east.

Prehistoric settlement of the area is evidenced by Pipton Long Cairn, a neolithic burial chamber to the south-west of Pipton Farm.
A fragment of Roman road was found during excavations for the South Wales Gas Pipeline south of the disused railway line, about 450 m west of Pipton Farm. It was not on the orientation of the Y Gaer to Kenchester Roman road which is assumed to have passed near Pipton roughly on the line of the A438. It may have been a spur to this road crossing the Wye and making for Castell Collen.
