Explorer Tom Blaencaerau, Settlement is a post-medieval spot where people used to hang out. It’s basically a ghost town now, so wave hello to any lingering spirits you meet.

Explorer Tom Blaencaerau Colliery in Bridgend has a restored tip that looks like a hill of black sand. Post Medieval coal mining at its finest. I’d bet there are still nuggets hidden in the dirt. Dig around if you dare!

Explorer Tom Nodufa Welsh Baptist Chapel on Caerau Road is standing there looking all serious. Post Medieval vibes mean it's got stories to tell. Maybe ask it about the old blacksmiths nearby?
