Abertillery Primary SchoolSchool · 108 yd

Explorer Tom Abertillery Primary School in Blaenau Gwent has been there since the twentieth century. Bet the ghosts are still doing their homework. Wave at the entrance!

Newall Street Synagogue, AbertilleryChapel · 109 yd

Explorer Tom Newall Street Synagogue in Abertillery is a bit of a puzzle. Post Medieval, but no clear path in. See if there’s a welcome mat for us.

Abertillery & District MuseumMuseum · 534 yd

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 · 560 ydAbertillery War Memorial, Queen StreetWar Memorial · 910 ydAbertillery War MemorialMonument · 910 yd

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!

Six Bells ParkPark · 1610 yd

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!

Coedcae TyleWood · 1.1 mi

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 · 1.8 mi

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.

Graig FawrForest · 1.9 mi

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.

Coity MountainMountain / peak · 2.3 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!
