Builth Wells
Builth Wells is a market community as well as neighborhood in the county of Powys and historical area of Brecknockshire (Breconshire), mid Wales, lying at the assemblage of rivers Wye and Irfon, in the Welsh (or top) part of the Wye Valley. It has a population of 2,568. Most of the town's buildings, including the 1876 Market Hall, were developed from stone from Llanelwedd Quarry. Much of the dealing with and also other clothed rock made use of in the building and construction of the Elan Valley dams was also quarried right here. The quarry generated the first occurrence of laumontite in Wales. The quarry is currently operated by Hanson Aggregates. Builth is a historical anglicization of the Old Welsh Buellt/Buallt which integrates bu be, similar to some Middle English orthography), implying "ox" with gellt (later gwellt), indicating "lea or leas"; the very same type is made use of regardless of sex of the animal. The town added "Wells" in the 19th century when its springs were advertised as a site visitor tourist attraction. Its modern Welsh name Llanfair-ym-Muallt implies "Saint Mary in Ox Leas".
