Defining a region: The march of Wales

Defining a region: The march of Wales Principal Investigator, Professor Helen Fulton, Chair of Medieval Literature at the University of Bristol, explores a collaborative project which aims to revitalise a forgotten British borderland. Where is the March of Wales? The term refers to the borderlands between Wales and England, but the area of the March is not officially defined or recognised as a region of Britain. Our project aims to retrieve the Welsh borderlands and create a new sense of regional identity which will facilitate tourism, business growth, cross-jurisdictional initiatives, and heritage preservation.
