Explore Your Archives 2018: World Heritage Wales
Display of Archive Material at the Royal Commission, 20 & 21 November, 11am–4pm
In celebration of Explore Your Archives 2018, on Tuesday 20 and Wednesday 21 November between 11am and 4pm, the Royal Commission’s Library and Search Room will be hosting an exhibition of material relating to Wales’s three World Heritage sites – Castles and Town Walls of King Edward I in Gwynedd, Pontcysyllte Aqueduct and Canal in North East Wales, and Blaenavon Industrial Landscape. Do come and see us!
Material will also be on display for what will hopefully become Wales’s fourth world heritage site, the Slate Landscape of Northwest Wales which has recently been announced as the Uk’s preferred World Heritage Site Nomination for 2019. The area – which runs throughout the county of Gwynedd – is said to have “roofed the 19th-century world” as slate from its mines and quarries was exported around the globe.
