Tondu Iron Park
One of the newest and most exciting attractions in the area is Tondu Park, the conserved structures of a former Victorian ironworks. This unique legacy of South Wales’ industrial revolution is one of the key sites for the interpretation of industrial heritage in Bridgend County Borough. Visitors to Tondu Park will be able to explore the Scheduled Ancient Monument, learn about iron making, enjoy the natural woodland and landscaped parkland setting, and attend a variety of public events.
Cyclists on the Celtic Trail, part of the National Cycle Network, will be able to branch off the main route to enjoy the park picnic area, off road mountain bike course as well as all the other facilities at the Park. The Education Resource Centre will be a valuable resource for the local community, schools and visitors, assisting in the interpretation and celebration of this major attraction.
There is ample car and coach parking and Tondu rail station is close at hand, offering access from Bridgend, Cardiff and Swansea.
