Description
Ebbw Vale Through Time celebrates the town's many transformations over the past century. From the decline of iron and steel production to its revival, this collection showcases the highs and lows of Ebbw Vale's history.
The photographs in this book tell a story of change and adaptation, documenting the demolition of old buildings, the construction of new housing estates and town redevelopments, as well as the revitalisation of the local economy. The images also capture moments of community spirit, such as the 1992 National Garden Festival and the 2010 National Eisteddfod.
This unique collection provides a fascinating glimpse into Ebbw Vale's past, from the loss of traditional industries to the creation of new spaces for leisure and recreation.
