Venallt Ironworks:

by | Industry, Venallt Ironworks

The video attached is about the Venallt Ironworks and will be used on the historical village walks the Timeline team is organising. The video shows a schematic breakdown of how the process of producing Iron works. It also shows a few photographs of the buildings that remain and a few photographs of the demolition of the stack (watch out for the ghost).

The video is intended to be used whilst on the walk to explain what the walker is seeing. It will be accessed through a map of the walk either in paper format or through an iPhone. For each stop on the walk there is a small picture of the building we are looking at and alongside this photo will be a QR code which can be scanned and takes you through to the video. I have shown an example below.
