Great community center with amenities for all ages including a cafe, computer room, and a beautiful museau with one of the best interactive display sets that I have ever seen. I must do to start off your visit of the Great town.
It was good if you like trains. Was a bit disappointing. We paid £22 for two adult tickets kids were free on this occasion. The journey seemed to go back and forth, rather than from point a to point b, but there wasn't anything to do at any of the stops. Journey lasted about an hour's and about 15-20 minutes of this was stationary to have pictures of the kids in the engine itself if you wanted to. Appreciate totally it's a volunteer run thing but we were just expecting something else after looking at the website and having done these trips before. Not saying don't go by any means, just don't expect too much
The food is delicious. Coffee and tea are excellent. The atmosphere is great. I have been there now 5 times this month and it has been busy every day.nNext to it is a little museum about the history of the iron workers.nIt also has a gift shop with reasonable prices. It also entails the Blaenavon library, which has cute programs for little kids.nAll the personnel I interacted with were super friendly.nI highly recommend this place.
Epicentre of large scale industrial sites arising from the 1780s with iron foundries, leading onto the development of Bessemer steel production. One can see how the site began, understand the importance of Wales and it's claim to be the first industrial nation. The BBC TV series 'coal house' set in 1927 and 'coal house' at war set in 1944 were filmed here. Nearby are 'The Big Pit' and walks that explore the development of industrial sites from The Iron Age, the middle ages and the Industrial Revolution.
Great starting place for visiting the historic region. Lots of interesting and interactive displays including videos indoors and wind up audio boxes outdoors. It is a short drive or a few kilometres walk from the Big Pitt mines.
