Interests
Industrial Heritage
Wales, once a powerhouse of the Industrial Revolution, saw its fortunes tied to coal. The Rhondda Valley, a stark, beautiful landscape is a symbol of this era. It's coal fuelled industries but its decline left a lasting impact.
Today visitors can explore the remnants of this industrial past, from the ironworks of Blaenavon to the dock of Cardiff Bay.

Castles
Wales is renowned for its remarkable castles, with over 600 scattered across the country. These fortresses were mostly built by the Normans after their invasion in the 11th century to assert control over the Welsh. Notable castles include Caernarfon Castle, famous for its role in the investiture of Prince Charles, and Conwy Castle, known for its well-preserved defensive walls. Pembroke Castle, birthplace of Henry VII, and Harlech Castle, a key site in the Welsh Wars of Independence, are also significant landmarks. These castles offer visitors a fascinating glimpse into Wales' medieval history
