- Llangunllo meeting 2026
Saturday 21 February 2026
For the 2026 Radnorshire CAMRA Branch AGM there was just a quorum (Chris, Terry, Graham, myself and Colin) for the AGM on Saturday 14th February at the Fforest Inn.
The pub reserved their new room which was perfect, with ten seats around a large table. I ordered two bowls of Cheesy chips, but no-one wanted them so Chris and myself had a bowl each.
It was decided to try meeting on the Second Saturday each month, as Chris. constantly gets called to CAMRA HO. meetings on the first Saturday of the month.
It was suggested that the branch nominate a Pub of the year, POTY, Cider pub of the year CPOY and Club of the year COTY for 2026. Must be in Radnorshire. Send your nominations to Chris. by 8th March. moc.liamg@elpparaep.sirhC
Next meeting is Saturday 14th March at the Greyhound in Llangunnlo. Train departs Llandrindod about 1300. Jackie is offering a ride from Llangunnlo station to the pub, see below. Return leaves about 1700. Important for you to check for times changes. Hi Dave, That would be fine. Jackie would be happy to pick up and drop anybody back to the station who didn't want to walk down. If you could give us an idea of numbers nearer the time that would be great. Sorry I don't know the train times they seem to change all the time. Looking forward to seeing you all again. Regards Paul

Hi all. Saturday 3rd January 2026 was Llanerch Inn in Llandrindod day.

Radnorshire Branch members arrived at 1.000pm (Colin, me, Terry, David S, Chris. and Graham)
Beers were Rhymney Export, WPA and a Christmas Special Santas Little Helper. All were in good condition. Even the Christmas special which is sometimes an excuse to dump cinnamon into beer was OK.
As part of our discussions was the upcoming AGM. It should be Saturday the 14th February 2026 at the Fforest Inn, Llanfihangel Nant Melan . They have converted some dead space into a warm room with a big table which we can reserve.. This date to be confirmed with 28 days notice.

- Radnorshire CAMRA branch visit to Aberedw 2025
Saturday 6 December 2025
On Saturday December 6th the branch went to the Seven Stars at Aberedw.
It is without a bus link so we had a few shared cars this time.
The place was empty at 1.00pm, so we got a table near the fire. There was Chris, Myself, Terry, Dave D, David S and Graham. Beer was Wye Vally HPA or Butty Bach. All in good condition.
Also Peter a local CAMRA member came to say "Hello" He pointed out a framed picture of a British fighter jet. Given to the pub by the RAF as a "Thank you" for returning parts of a plane that crashed nearby in 1989 while on a training exercise. The pilot died. His mother donated some seating looking towards where the accident happened.
The pub was well laid out for Christmas. Very clean throughout. Many of us enjoyed some good hot food as well as the cask ales of course.
Our next CAMRA branch visit t is at the Llanerch Inn, in Llandrindod Wells on Saturday 3rd January 2026 at 1.00pm. We hope to see you there.
