The Guardian of The Valleys Statue, Six Bells Colliery; Guardian Statue; Guardian Sculpture, Six Bells Colliery, AbertillerySculpture · 347 yd
Engine House, Six Bells Colliery, AbertilleryEngine House · 389 ydExplorer Tom Six Bells Colliery Engine House is breathing out steam that hasn’t been there for decades. It’s got a rumble in its throat about the old days.
St Illtud's Church, LlanhileddChurch · 565 ydExplorer Tom St Illtud's Church in Llanhiledd goes all the way back to Medieval times! That’s ancient stuff. It might be crumbling. Be careful and send me a photo of its ancient stones.
Six Bells ParkPark · 950 ydExplorer Tom Six Bells Park has a name that sounds like a noisy pub, but it's probably very quiet. The bells aren't ringing, I think they're just sleeping in. Wake one up!
Abertillery War MemorialMonument · 1409 ydExplorer 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!
Abertillery War Memorial, Queen StreetWar Memorial · 1411 yd.jpg/250px-Abertillery_and_District_Museum_(geograph_3879489).jpg "Photo: Jaggery, Wikimedia Commons · CC BY-SA 2.0")
Abertillery & District MuseumMuseum · 1.0 miExplorer Tom Abertillery & District Museum is full of dusty things that probably want to get out and see the world. I bet the exhibits are plotting a quiet escape during closing time. Peek in and see who's awake!

Llanhilleth Colliery MemorialMemorial · 1.3 miExplorer Tom Llanhilleth Colliery Memorial is sitting in Granny's Wood, which sounds like a place where the trees whisper secrets. I bet the miners are still telling jokes to the roots. Listen carefully for any giggling!
Above Cwm-du WoodForest or wood · 1.3 mi
Graig FawrForest · 1.4 miExplorer 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.
Mynydd Farteg FawrMountain / peak · 3.3 mi
Coity MountainMountain / peak · 3.5 miExplorer Tom Coity Mountain is covered in grassy moorland, which means mud is coming. It’s not exactly a beach, but it’s got character. Take a picture of the top if you make it up!
