The market town of Abergavenny, set against a magnificent mountain backdrop, has an impressive historical legacy. The Romans called their fort here Gobannium. Both Abergavenny Castle and St Mary's Priory Church were founded in the 11th century. The Drawing, above, copyright Michael Blackmore

The society organises the scheme to floodlight Abergavenny Castle.
