In 2000 Blaenavon became a World Heritage Site but, unlike most others, it has no major monuments, cathedral or such building. Blaenavon is a relic of the Industrial Revolution and, as such, comprises the memorials and detritus of a busy and once burgeoning industrial town. Chris Morris explores the 33 square kilometres of the Blaenavon landscape with photographs of the coal-dust, bits of rail-track, brick buildings and metal remnants of this iron-making town of the late 18th and 19th century. He explores the changes that came to the town and its people and focuses on the human endeavour that made all this possible.
