The Bannau Brycheiniog National Park Authority plays a vitally important role in securing the conservation of the historic environment, whilst ensuring that it accommodates and remains responsive to present day needs. This is achieved by working in conjunction with other bodies and organisations such as the Welsh Government, Cadw and the Welsh Archaeological Trusts.
