Member of staff at the Blaenavon World Heritage Centre

'Blaenavon has a rich and exciting history| . Some of my family have resided in the town for nearly two hundred years and I am proud of the role that they and their contemporaries played in the making of the modern world through their toil during the industrial revolution. I am pleased to work in a place which celebrates the illustrious history of the town and the endeavours of people, like my ancestors| , who contributed to making Blaenavon the success it was during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries’.
