Abertillery

Abertillery, which translates as 'mouth of the River Tyleri', is the largest town of the Ebbw Fach valley in what was the historic county of Monmouthshire, South Wales. Following local government changes it entered into the Blaenau Gwent County Borough administrative area. Much of the landscape neighbours the Brecon Beacons National Park and the Blaenavon World Heritage Site. Traditionally a significant coal mining centre, the Abertillery area has undergone considerable modification in recent decades. The local landscape has long been known for its different natural charm. Located on the A467, the town is about 15 miles (22 kilometres) north of the M4 and 5 miles (8 kilometres) south of the A465 'Heads of the Valleys' trunk road. It is roughly 25 miles by road from Cardiff and 47 miles from Bristol. As per the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 11601 people. Statistics compiled by The Welsh Language Board (Bwrdd yr Iaith Gymraeg) in 2001 show that 9.9 percent of Abertillery spoke Welsh, which decreased by 2.7 percent in 2011 to 7.2%. Abertillery's traditional-style town centre largely developed in the late 19th century and displays some impressive Victorian architecture. Spreading out over 4 primary streets, the town has 2 department shops and a covered Victorian arcade connecting 2 of the primary shopping locations. These are all featured in a Blaenau Gwent Borough Council renovation and modernisation venture. By 2014, finished projects consisted of a number of streets, public areas and the town's Metropole Theatre. This RICS acclaimed structure delivers state of the art production, exhibition, conference and meeting facilities as well as housing Abertillery Museum.
