Sennybridge Training Area lies just outside the Brecon Beacon National Park to the north west of the county town of Brecon, covering an area of 12,144 hectares of land in Mid Wales within the counties of Powys and Carmarthenshire. Sennybridge is the MOD’s third largest training area and is used 350 days a year. Although used for artillery firing, it has increasingly been used for infantry training since the School of Infantry moved to Brecon.

Other Identification:

This Churchill is located on a disused anti-tank range. It is identifiable as a Mark V from the turret mantlet aperture. It may have been driven into position as the cover plate over the sprocket centre is intact (towing usually generally requires the disconnection of the final drive spines and hence the removal of his plate).
