Knighton
Knighton is an interesting town. It occupies a unique position; part of the town is in Wales, and part is in England. It is neither English nor Welsh, just simply Knighton.
Offa's Dyke, the famous earthworks marking the boundary between England and Wales, stretching from the Severn Estuary to Liverpool Bay, runs through Knighton, the only town on its entire length. It is an historic town and has an historic market. Everything was sold there even wives. The last two instances being in 1851 and 1854 when wives were sold for one shilling..cheap at half the price !....
