About

Abertillery South sits on the slopes of the Ebbw Fach valley, with terraces and post‑war housing stepping up from the valley floor. The town grew around coal and ironworking in the 19th and 20th centuries; remnants of that past remain in street patterns, former pit sites and in a miners’ memorial near the town centre. Public green spaces and converted former industrial land provide walking routes that follow the valley and give views back toward the ridgelines to the north.

Llanhilleth lies a short distance to the east and serves as a local hub on the Ebbw Valley rail corridor, with a station that links the village to Cardiff and Ebbw Vale. Local life is centred on small shops, community halls and sports pitches, and council‑led regeneration has focused on housing and public realm improvements. The area’s layout and transport links make it a place where valley geography and the legacy of mining continue to shape everyday movement and local facilities.
