A manor and public Victorian park built in 1818 for the then ironmaster of the Tredegar Iron Company. Well worth strolling around to admire, among other things, its arboretum and the world's largest lump of coal. The bandstand in the park stages various performances during the summer. Rooms in the manor may be rented out for meetings/events.
Bedwellty House is a Grade II-listed house and gardens in Tredegar, in the Sirhowy Valley in south-east Wales. It was built in the early 19th century on the site of an earlier building and subsequently enlarged into its present form by mid-century. The owners donated the house and its grounds to the public at the beginning of the 20th century. They were restored at the beginning of the 21st century. The grounds are included on the Cadw/ICOMOS Register of Parks and Gardens of Special Historic Interest in Wales, the only estate so listed in Blaenau Gwent.
