Chepstow

Chepstow is a town in Monmouthshire, Wales. It adjoins the border with Gloucestershire in England. It is situated on the River Wye, about two miles (3.2 km) above its confluence with the River Severn, and adjoining the western end of the Severn Bridge. It's 16 miles (26 km) east of Newport, 18 miles (29 km) north-west of Bristol and 110 miles (180 km) west of London. In line with the 2001 Census, the town has a permanent population of about 10821. Its accessibility to the cities of Bristol, Newport and Cardiff means it features a substantial number of commuters. Chepstow Castle, situated on a clifftop above the Wye and its bridge, is frequently cited as the oldest surviving stone castle in Britain. The castle was established by William Fitzosbern immediately after the Norman conquest, and was extended in later centuries ahead of becoming ruined following the Civil War. A Benedictine priory was also established within the walled town, which was the centre of the Marcher Lordship of Striguil. The port of Chepstow became noted during the Middle Ages for its imports of wine, and also became a significant centre for the export of timber and bark, from nearby woodland in the Wye valley and Forest of Dean. During the late eighteenth century the town was a focus of early tourism as a part of the "Wye Tour", and the tourist sector remains significant. Other important industries included shipbuilding - one of the very first World War National Shipyards was established in the town - and heavy engineering, including the prefabrication of bridges and, now, wind turbine towers. Chepstow is also well-known for its racecourse, which has hosted the Welsh National every single year since 1949.
