Blaenau Gwent is defined physically by the beautifully desolate mountain tops which divide and watch over its vibrant, bustling valleys. Blaenau Gwent is a place of heritage and dramatic change, with a sense of its past but its eyes firmly on the future.
Although the towns give the county borough a busy, urban feel, Blaenau Gwent is actually a largely rural area. Forty five per cent of the land area is undeveloped, and the greater part of this is defined as open countryside. Wherever you are, beautiful countryside is never far away, and as often as not it will be providing the views from where you’re standing.
