Hate asking but as I'm completely unprepared, here goes... Where should I go to explore in South Wales this weekend?

The Granite Chapel

Not truly abandoned in the strictest sense but beautiful and a bit crumbly nonetheless. From a height during a local mining boom, the congregation can no longer maintain the main chapel so meet in the Sunday School round back. This beautiful place is now used only for storage and looks to contain the contents of the last jumble sale! They need to sell more of this junk if they're ever gonna fix this place up again 😅

Carousel of Lost Memories from 1910s

I've seen some old photographs in my time, but these are probably the oldest. This bureau was literally spilling out hundreds of yellowing photos and period documents from the turn of the previous century. I wish I had spent more time documenting and cataloguing them all, but I hope you enjoy this small collection I put together. More soon!

I don't wanna talk right now, I just wanna watch TV 📺🌱

I've been laid low with a nasty cough/cold thing since Xmas, hence me being rather quiet. Once I'm feeling a little better I'll start up my regular output again and get up my end of year review. In the meantime, all I have the energy for is watching TV so please enjoy this entangled mess from the house I've been covering recently...

Monkey and Potion Puzzle

A rather strange juxtaposition of some old tonics and tablets, alongside a photo of children meeting some cute monkeys! And our first introduction to the family that once called this long lost place home of course. The Marriott's bought this house in 1966 but seemed to bring with them plenty of turn of the century photos and documents too. I have no idea what era this photo dates back to but it seems more modern than most.
