Local History
Of interest to family historians are the following plaques which have
recently been set into the pavement outside a number of premises in
Chepstow High Street. Each describes the occupancy over the years.
They are already becoming discoloured. I will try to get sharper
images when I can. Let me know if any particular detail is illegible.
