Places of Note
In addition to Aberystwyth's more well-known landmarks, there are a number of more obscure places which have a special place in the town's history.
Most of these places are marked with information plaques erected by the Civic Society, or occasionally some other organisation, which tell you a little more. The map should help you track them down, if you'd like to see them in real life!
