[1][failed verification] In 2009 Monmouth Civic Society identified 24 historic and interesting buildings in the town, and organised the production and fixing of ceramic blue plaques to them.
The plaques were made by Ned Heywood of Chepstow, with a stoneware body and raised text in both English and Welsh, set off by a blue glaze.
The space for text was limited, and each plaque contained a brief summary of the importance of the building to the town.
Some choices were obvious, such as the Monnow Bridge and Shire Hall, both symbols of the town and listed buildings.
The "MonmouthpediA" project provides visitors with information about all aspects of the town via QRpedia QR codes.
