- Just having a look into Bats in Heraldry. Seems quite rare in Britain, they appear more frequently on Spanish crests. I did find this coat of arms for the former Welsh county of Brecknockshire (1536-1974). Bats n' Blades, I like their style...

From our recent visit: St David's Church, Llanddew, reputedly the 1st Christian site in Brecknockshire (present building 12th century).
Also pictured: the remains of the medieval Bishop's Palace where Gerald of Wales, as Archdeacon of Brecon, lived between 1175-1203.

Spotted this old road sign on my walk today.
It has the name Brecon County in the circle at the top. The County of Brecon - also known as Brecknockshire, the County of Brecknock or Breconshire - is one of the thirteen historic counties of Wales and was abolished in 1974.
It could use a clean.

Yes, the county abolished in 1974 took its name, Brecknock or Brecknockshire, from the ancient kingdom.

🐲 A Welsh dragon for this week's #FindsFriday ready for St David's Day tomorrow. This is a military cap badge of the Brecknockshire Regiment dating to the First World War. Unfortunately he's missing a bit of his leg and tail!
