As a region, our past, present and future are inextricably linked. We share a social, cultural and economic history underpinned by our internationally recognised heritage. From Roman settlements at Caerleon and Caerwent to Norman settlements across the region, an industrial heritage built on coal, iron and steel; a UNESCO World Heritage site at Blaenavon, the advancement of democracy through the chartist and suffragette movements and the birthplace of the architect of the NHS. Our unique geography and landscape, framed by our industrial and maritime heritage, has shaped this shared history and culture. Our heritage assets are internationally recognised; this is acknowledged by the investment that our heritage organisations have made in the restoration of our assets including the £8.75m investment in the Transporter Bridge by HLF and the recent announcement of £5m investment by Cadw in Caerphilly Castle. The unique landscape is complementary to and forms part of this cultural heritage; the Gwent Levels, Valleys Regional Park, Brecon Beacons National Park, Cwmcarn Scenic Drive, the Monmouthshire and Brecon canal, all enhance the visitor offer and contribute to the well being of our communities. -
