Overlooking Cwmcarn
Image: © Robin Drayton Taken: 28 May 2012
Taken from car park 4 at “Windy Ridge” of the Cwmcarn Forest Drive. The Ebbw Valley runs from centre left to upper right with the Carn Valley off to the centre right. Originally, the village here at the confluence of the Carn brook with the River Ebbw was Abercarn. However, as industry developed further north up the Ebbw Valley that area became what is now Abercarn and the village here took the name Cwmcarn.
