My latest piece in November edition of Welsh Country Magazine is about Laura Ashley who developed a global fashion brand in an empty railway station in Carno and for a while transformed the economy of mid-Wales. She died when she fell downstairs in her daughters home in 1985. The magazine is available in newsagents and many supermarkets, price £2.95.
