Pengwern
Settlement in sub-Roman Britain / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Not to be confused with Pengwern Boat Club.
For the modern settlement with the same name, see Pengwern, Denbighshire.
Pengwern was a Brythonic settlement of sub-Roman Britain situated in what is now the English county of Shropshire, adjoining the modern Welsh border. It is regarded as possibly being the early seat of the kings of Powys before its establishment at Mathrafal, further west, but the theory that it was an early kingdom (or a sub-kingdom of Powys itself) has also been postulated. Its precise location is uncertain.[1]
