The Weaving Trail
The growth of the Woollen Industry in Dre-fach Felindre and the surrounding area had a huge impact on our landscape and the people who lived here. The period from the late 1800's until the early 1900's is known as the golden era of the industry. Increased work opportunities attracted many other people to the village, and as a result Dre-fach Felindre grew. The village continues to prosper, an active local community works hard to ensure that this trend continues.
On today's tour I'll help you discover the secrets hidden in our historic landscape.
