It is approached over a private drive and a short access road that just runs to Orchard Gardens (Council retirement flats / bungalows), and opposite that junction is the famous Albert Hall (See photo on page 4), one of the few Victorian Theatres remaining in Wales. Rock Park is reputedly the oldest Arboretum in Wales (c.1860) is only 200 yards and the Town Centre, Railway / Bus Stations are only 400 yards. Llandrindod Wells was once the foremost Spa Resort in Wales and it retains many of its elaborate Victorian and Edwardian buildings.
