Children's playground342 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Another playground in Blaenau Gwent. The equipment looks rusty, but don't let that fool you. It's probably time-worn wisdom.
Open-Air Swimming Baths, BrynmawrSwimming Pool · 357 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Open-Air Swimming Baths, Brynmawr has caught my eye in Blaenau Gwent. I bet a swimming pool with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
Blaenau Gwent County Borough CouncilChildren's playground · 365 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this playground.Explorer Tom Another Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council playground means there's plenty of room to get lost in the equipment. The seesaws are probably having a disagreement. Take a side!
Parc Nant y WaunNature reserve · 498 ydExplorer Tom Parc Nant y Waun has a cycle route running through it, which means people ignore the nature part entirely. A nature reserve where bikes zoom past like they own the place. I bet the flowers are annoyed with all that wheel noise. Pedal slowly or the squirrels will throw acorns at you!
Winches Row, NantygloWorkers Housing · 510 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Winches Row, Nantyglo looks like it’s been standing there since the Post Medieval era, judging passers-by. Workers' housing? I bet the neighbours were loud. Did anyone ever complain about the noise?
Brynmawr Fire StationHeritage place · 526 ydExplorer Tom Brynmawr Fire Station is probably napping while a chimney catches fire two streets away. Typical Welsh understatement at work here, wouldn’t you say?
Dunlop Semtex Rubber Factory: Boiler HouseBoiler House · 602 ydExplorer Tom Dunlop Semtex Rubber Factory: Boiler House is a modern industrial relic where steam once roared. Boiler houses are basically giant metal kettles with attitude. Watch out for hot pipes and rusty ladders.
Footpath to the side of the A467 from the Wesley bridgeHeritage place · 1151 ydExplorer Tom Footpath to the side of the A467 from the Wesley bridge sounds like a proper walk. Just don’t let the cars bully you. Take a picture of the view if it’s not too muddy.
Kissing Gates, Beaufort Hill WoodlandsMountain or hill · 1153 ydExplorer Tom Kissing Gates, Beaufort Hill Woodlands sounds romantic and a bit tricky to get through. Just walk past them and don’t worry if they’re stuck. Take a picture of the gates for the collection.
Beaufort Hill Woodland, Southern ReservoirForest or wood · 1203 ydExplorer Tom Beaufort Hill Woodland has a southern reservoir, which means water and mud are waiting for you at the bottom. A forest with a lake that probably holds secrets or just old boots. I bet there are fish looking up at you judging your gear. Drop a stone in and count the ripples!
Beaufort Hill Woodlands ReservoirMountain or hill · 1367 ydExplorer Tom Beaufort Hill Woodlands Reservoir is probably full of frogs and bad decisions. I heard a heron lives there now, judging everyone. Go say hi if you dare!
Roundhouse Farm, NantygloFortified House · 1448 ydExplorer Tom Roundhouse Farm, Nantyglo has caught my eye in Blaenau Gwent. I bet a fortified house with a name like that could keep me talking all afternoon; I'm already inventing a daft little scene for it, and I'll stop before it turns into history.
