A little history
Port Talbot Steelworks — one of the largest integrated steel plants in Europe — defines the town's skyline and identity. Richard Burton, one of the greatest actors of the 20th century, was born in Pontrhydyfen nearby in 1925. Anthony Hopkins was born in Port Talbot in 1937. The town has produced extraordinary artistic talent.
The steelworks skyline at night is genuinely extraordinary. The Richard Burton Museum in Pontrhydyfen. The Afan Forest Park for mountain biking. The Anthony Hopkins connection celebrated locally.
