The area around Blaenavon is evidence of South Wales' pre-eminence as a major iron and coal producer in the world during the 19th century. All the necessary elements are still visible - coal and ore mines, quarries, the original railway system, furnaces, workers' homes and the social infrastructure of their communities.
