It's been announced that Crickhowell is the overall UK WINNER of the Great British High Street Awards 2018.
The judges said that Crickhowell is proud of the fiercely independent nature of the shops on its high street and recently residents, visitors and retailers came together to buy and renovate a local pub to maintain this ethos.

In addition Crickhowell was announced as Best High Street in Wales and Emma Corfield-Walters (pictured below) who owns Book-ish was awarded the High Street Hero Award.
Emma said:
"Thanks to everyone who helped us to be recognised as an amazing high street, thank you for voting and thank you for getting involved!"
Here at Fyi:Brecon we'd like to congratulate all concerned. This didn't just 'happen', the whole town worked together to make their high street as wonderful as it could possibly be. Well done all!
