Shintons Row, BlainaWorkers Housing · 62 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Shintons Row, Blaina in Blaenau Gwent is just another row of houses pretending to be historic. Post Medieval workers housing. I bet the neighbours are still arguing about the fence line.
Clock Row, 1-17 and 19-26, BlainaWorkers Housing · 66 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Clock Row, 1-17 and 19-26, Blaina has caught my eye in Blaenau Gwent.

Ebenezer Chapel (Presbyterian and Calvinistic Methodist;West Side), BlainaChapel · 127 ydExplorer Tom Ebenezer Chapel in Blaina is the West Side Presbyterian. Post Methodist, Post Medieval, and probably full of history. It's all about community here. Snap one for me!
Children's playground225 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Another playground in Blaenau Gwent. The swings are whispering secrets. Listen close, but don't trust them. Snap a photo for proof.
Salem Baptist Chapel, High Street, Blaina GwentChapel · 520 ydExplorer Tom Salem Baptist Chapel in Blaina is sitting on High Street looking smug. The records note it as Post Medieval, which I think means 'don't expect much'. Take a picture from outside so we don't scare it.
Nantyglo and Blaina War MemorialMemorial · 847 ydExplorer Tom Nantyglo and Blaina War Memorial is sitting in Central Park, which seems like a very peaceful spot for heroes to rest. I bet they're enjoying the fresh air and the quiet. Take a picture with it for me!
Mynydd Carn-Y-CefnMountain / peak · 1041 ydExplorer Tom Mynydd Carn-Y-Cefn is waiting for you to conquer it. The name sounds tricky, so don’t get confused on the way up. Take a photo of the peak when you’re done puffing.
Cwm-celyn WoodlandForest or wood · 1408 ydExplorer Tom Cwm-celyn Woodland is a forest that has been photographed, which means it knows it looks good for the camera. Just trees in Blaenau Gwent, but with a better angle. I bet there is a perfect spot for a selfie if you are brave enough to find it. Strike a pose and hope it works!
Mynydd JamesMountain / peak · 1.1 miExplorer Tom Mynydd James sounds like someone’s uncle who loves hiking. It’s probably got some nice trails or at least good air. Take a picture of yourself looking fit on the summit for me.
Roundhouse towerCastle, fort or tower · 1.2 miExplorer Tom Roundhouse tower in Blaenau Gwent is playing hard to get, mate. No proper account, so I'm guessing it's a big metal box with attitude. Snap one if you see it peeking out!
Roundhouse Farm, NantygloFortified House · 1.2 miExplorer 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.
Footpath to the side of the A467 from the Wesley bridgeHeritage place · 1.5 miExplorer 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.
