Margaret is Birmingham born and bred and her father David Fleming who is a keen photographer has photographs of the building of Claerwen Dam. Margaret moved to Llandrindod in 2016 and enjoys trying to incorporate the colours of the local landscape into her creative writing and felting. She is in awe of what an engineering feat the dams were but also how nature has created the landscape around the dams and reservoirs. Margaret also gives her views on Rhayader and how the town is not just about the dams.
