Llanhilleth Colliery MemorialMemorial · 216 yd

Explorer 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!

Llanhilleth Miners InstituteWorking Mens Institute · 613 yd

Explorer Tom Llanhilleth Miners Institute in Blaenau Gwent is a 20th Century cinema and institute combo. It’s where the fun happened after shifts. Take a picture if the west side still has that classic charm.

St Mark's Church, LlanhileddChurch · 716 yd

Explorer 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 yd

Explorer 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.

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!

Graig FawrForest · 2.1 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.
