In 1807, the Tredegar Wharf Company bought 200 acres of land of what was to become the community of Pillgwenlly, as dock workers flocked to the area from all around the world.
Meeting at Pill Millennium Centre, join the Gwent Archives and Newport Transporter Bridge Project teams, on this 1.5 mile urban walk to discover the history, characters and stories of how this ‘City within a City’ grew under the shadow of our 119-year-old Transporter Bridge.
There, we’ll learn about the current restoration project plus an exclusive opportunity to explore inside the brand-new Visitor Centre- and enjoy some light refreshments!
Please note:
Once you have booked on please keep an eye on the InBox of the email address you used to book your place for the event, as important information will be sent out prior to the day.
As this walk includes the chance to explore the Visitor Centre, there is no official finish time so please allow for this when planning your attendance - we would hate for you to miss this opportunity!
Although this walk is FREE - donations are always welcome and appreciated : )
