About Corn Exchange Crickhowell
The Corn Exchange in Crickhowell is a remarkable example of people taking their future in their own hands. A former pub at the entrance to Crickhowell’s historic High Street, it has been bought by the community to stop it being turned into a national-chain supermarket. It is now being converted into one-bed flats above small shops in keeping with Crickhowell’s unique, independent, town centre. This ambitious community-led project will help preserve the character of the town and protect jobs in family-run High Street shops as well as creating much needed homes. This project is supported by the Brecon Beacons National Parks Sustainable Development Fund, and Powys’s EU LEADER Development Programme. The Corn Exchange project is being run by Corn Exchange Crickhowell Ltd (CECLtd) – a small company which was established in December 2015 to enable the community buyout of the former pub. More than 230 local people and friends of Crickhowell have invested in Corn Exchange Crickhowell Ltd – to stop the building being turned into a supermarket. A non-executive Chairman and board of directors has been appointed to run the business on behalf of the shareholders.
