Tredegar

The village of Tredegar is not just the birthplace of Ni Bevan, but the place where the concept of a modern, universal, and free healthcare system first came to prominence. There is an interesting History Trail and a number of landmarks in the area, from a memorial to Welsh participants in the Spanish Civil war to the town clock tower.

The nearest railway station to Tredegar is Rhymney, the terminus of the Rhymney line from Cardiff Central.
