Blaenavon Ironworks
Blaenavon Ironworks, North Street, Blaenavon, Pontypool, Gwent, NP4 9RN .
Blaenavon Ironworks recalls South Wales's industrial history. It is one of Europe's best-preserved 18th century ironworks.
Built in the 1780s, the ironworks were at the cutting edge of new technology. Visitors can still trace the entire process of production, which involved the harnessing of steam power to blow the blast furnaces, and the movement of material by water-balance tower.
