ON Monday, July 9th we will officially open the new Welsh Language Centre at the Tithe Barn named Canolfan Y Degwm (in English The Tithe Centre).
This joint project sees us partnering with the Aneurin Bevan University Health Board, whose Welsh Language Unit will be based here; and an association of local Welsh Societies under the umbrella of Criw ‘r Efail.
Details of the Centre were announced on St David’s Day.
Welcoming the news then, Canon Mark Soady Prior & Vicar said:

The Tithe Barn will continue to also be home to:
- Abergavenny Tourism Information Centre
- Abergavenny Tapestry
- The Church’s office and Exhibition display
