Epynt clearance
text:
The Epynt clearance was the forced eviction of the Mynydd Epynt community in Powys, Wales, where 200 men, women and children were evicted from their homes which included 54 farms and a pub. The eviction was carried out by the British Army and the War Office in 1940, creating the Sennybridge Training Area (SENTA), which is currently the largest military training area in Wales. The phrase "Cofiwch Epynt" has been used in memory of the eviction in a similar manner to Cofiwch Dryweryn.
