Linda Vista Gardens

With easy access to Abergavenny town centre, Linda Vista Gardens is a small public park including both formal and informal gardens.

With sloping lawns, a variety of exotic plants and specimen trees there are plenty of places to sit and relax.

Linda Vista House was built as a private home in 1875. It's owner, Henry Jenkins, was born in Abergavenny and subsequently made his fortune in the construction industry in Chile. Returning to his hometown, he built his villa and laid out the gardens, which lay mainly to the south of the house. In 1957, the gardens came into public ownership. They were subsequently extended, including land at Castle Meadows and an extensive replating was undertaken.

🏛 Step back in time on Market Street! 🏛

Once a simple 13th-century Norman lane, Market Street has seen centuries of change — from medieval markets to Victorian trade.

Today, its beautiful jettied buildings, iron posts, and Town Hall backdrop make it one of Abergavenny’s most charming historic spots.

📍 Stroll down Market Street and walk through history.
