Cwrt-y-Gollen ("Hazel Court") is a British Army training base, 2 miles (3 km) south-east of Crickhowell and just north of the A40 road and the River Usk, in southeastern Powys, Wales.
History
Cwrt-y-Gollen became the regional centre for infantry training as the Welsh Brigade Depot in 1963.[1] It was announced in 1984 that the depot would close in the interests of economy.[2]
Current use
Cwrt-y-Gollen training camp is currently used by several services of the British Armed Forces. Most notably by the British Army as a reserve center for B Detachment (North), 203 (Welsh) Multi-Role Medical Regiment.[3]
It is also the headquarters for the Gwent and Powys Army Cadet Force (ACF).[4]
