Llanhilleth Colliery MemorialMemorial · 216 ydExplorer 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!
Andrews Crescent, 9-13, AbertilleryWorkers Housing · 483 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Andrews Crescent in Abertillery is a classic example of Post Medieval workers' housing. It probably has a story to tell about the people who lived there, so if you see a door with character, snap it!
Royal Oak Cots, 15-20, AbertilleryWorkers Housing · 483 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Royal Oak Cots, 15-20, Abertillery looks like the workers had zero chill back then. Post Medieval housing? It probably smells like damp socks and hard labour. Hope they got a decent brew.
Children's playground559 ydComputer-made pictureExplorer Tom Children's playground in Blaenau Gwent. I think the slides are singing opera. Sing along if you can, or just nod politely.
St Mark's Church, LlanhileddChurch · 716 ydExplorer Tom St Mark's Church in Llanhiledd is standing tall on its east side. Nineteenth Century architecture with a view that might be worth a look. Go check it out for me, mate!
Commercial Road, Commercial RoadChapel · 979 ydExplorer Tom Commercial Road in Llanhilleth is listed as a chapel, which is weird since it’s a road. Post Medieval times were confusing. Take a picture for me of this architectural paradox and tell me what you think.

Six Bells ParkPark · 1.8 miExplorer 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!
Graig FawrForest · 2.1 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.
