A little history

Knighton — Tref-y-Clawdd in Welsh, meaning 'Town on the Dyke' — sits exactly on Offa's Dyke, the 8th century earthwork built to mark the boundary between England and Wales. The town is the official centre of the Offa's Dyke National Trail.

📍 Local tip

The Offa's Dyke Centre in the town for trail information. The Spaceguard Centre for asteroid-tracking tours (booking required). Walk north or south on the Dyke itself.
