Abertillery Primary SchoolSchool · 108 ydExplorer 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 ydExplorer 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.

It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Powell Tillery Workmen's Hall and Institute, Abertillery in Blaenau Gwent has been hanging out since the Post Medieval days.

It does not show this monument.Explorer Tom Pen-y-Bont Colliery is a post-medieval hole in the ground where men went down to dig for black gold.

Abertillery & District MuseumMuseum · 534 ydExplorer 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 War MemorialMonument · 910 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!
Craig Yr ArailMountain / peak · 1305 ydTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Craig Yr Arail might be hiding a secret cave or just a nice view. It’s got that mysterious vibe going on. Explore a bit and tell me if it feels like a dragon’s lair.
Coedcae TyleWood · 1.1 miExplorer 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!
Darren DduMountain / peak · 1.5 miTom: I’m here to help · Computer-made picture. It does not show this mountain top.Explorer Tom Darren Ddu sounds dark and moody, probably because of the name. It’s likely just a hill, but act like you’re exploring a haunted forest for fun. Take a spooky photo!
Graig FawrForest · 1.9 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.

Llanhilleth Colliery MemorialMemorial · 2.6 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!
