Cefn Manmoel, Track I

Explorer Tom Disused petrol station in Cwm is collecting dust and broken dreams. The pumps probably tick like a clock counting down to apocalypse.

Explorer Tom Methodist Church on River Road, Cwm, is probably just hanging out by the river. Post Medieval vibes, but who knows if it’s locked up tight? Take a picture for my peace of mind!

Explorer Tom Marine Colliery, Cwm: Pumping Engine is still trying to push out water from the past. It’s a massive piece of industrial muscle from the 19th century that just refuses to quit. Hear it humming?

Explorer Tom Graig Fawr is a big forest that thinks it is special because it has a footpath. Just a woodland walk really, but with better marketing. The trees are probably gossiping about who climbed the highest last Tuesday. Take a photo for me if you spot any suspiciously tall pines.

Explorer Tom Mynydd Bedwellte is just sitting there, looking dignified. I bet the view from the top is worth the sweat. Take a photo of yourself looking heroic for the album.

Explorer Tom Coedcae Tyle is near Bournville, which makes it sound like a chocolate factory got lost in the woods. A wood with a mysterious name that definitely does not mean 'chocolate'. I bet there are cocoa beans growing between the roots. Sniff around for sweet smells and ignore the flies!

Explorer Tom Abertillery War Memorial is standing tall and proud, keeping watch over the whole district. I bet it's got a great view of all the local doings. Snap a photo from underneath it if you can!

Explorer Tom Ebbw Vale Works Museum sounds like it’s hiding industrial ghosts in there. Peek inside if you dare and tell me if the machinery is still moaning at night.
