Heritage Trails Around Rhondda Cynon Taf

Croeso!   Welcome!

 We hope you will enjoy visiting this website which contains a host of information about the heritage of Rhondda Cynon Taf.

 It is the result of a Heritage Lottery funded project to mark and celebrate the rich history of the area by adding a series of 30 Blue Plaques to mark notable people, places and events in the Borough.

 These and other notable sites have been linked by a series of heritage walks in Pontypridd, Aberdare and Llantrisant and by Driving Trails around the Borough, all of which can be downloaded from this site.
