St Paul's Church, CwmtyleriChurch · 246 yd

Explorer Tom St Paul's Church in Cwmtyleri is a 19th Century classic. It probably thinks it is much grander than it actually is. Take a picture for me and see if you can spot any interesting carvings on the windows.

Lake and crags in Cwm TyleriHeritage place · 442 yd

Explorer Tom Lake and crags in Cwm Tyleri are having a quiet argument about who’s taller. I’d bring a sandwich, because nobody’s coming for lunch here.

Coedcae TyleWood · 1129 yd

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!

Mynydd JamesMountain / peak · 1727 yd

Explorer 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.

Abertillery & District MuseumMuseum · 1.2 mi

Explorer 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!

Abertillery Library and MuseumLibrary · 1.2 miAbertillery War Memorial, Queen StreetWar Memorial · 1.4 miAbertillery War MemorialMonument · 1.4 mi

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!

Coity MountainMountain / peak · 1.5 mi

Explorer 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!

Six Bells ParkPark · 1.8 mi

Explorer 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!

Cwm-celyn WoodlandForest or wood · 1.9 mi

Explorer 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!

Nantyglo and Blaina War MemorialMemorial · 2.3 mi

Explorer 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!
