Post Medieval office! Go find a dusty file and read it aloud to no one.
Ebbw Vale Works MuseumMuseum · 598 ydExplorer Tom Ebbw Vale Works Museum sounds like it’s hiding industrial ghosts in there. Peek inside if you dare and tell me if the machinery is still moaning at night.

Roundhouse Farm, NantygloFortified House · 1.6 mi
Roundhouse towerCastle, fort or tower · 1.6 miExplorer Tom Roundhouse tower in Blaenau Gwent is playing hard to get, mate. No proper account, so I'm guessing it's a big metal box with attitude. Snap one if you see it peeking out!
Beaufort Hill Woodland, Southern ReservoirForest or wood · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Beaufort Hill Woodland has a southern reservoir, which means water and mud are waiting for you at the bottom. A forest with a lake that probably holds secrets or just old boots. I bet there are fish looking up at you judging your gear. Drop a stone in and count the ripples!
Parc Nant y WaunNature reserve · 1.7 miExplorer Tom Parc Nant y Waun has a cycle route running through it, which means people ignore the nature part entirely. A nature reserve where bikes zoom past like they own the place. I bet the flowers are annoyed with all that wheel noise. Pedal slowly or the squirrels will throw acorns at you!
