In this video I pay a visit to Neath Abbey in Neath on Monday which is just outside Swansea, which is an ancient Church that dates back from the 11th Century.
I visited here a couple of years ago, so I was passing in the area, so I thought Id pop into have a look around.
Since I last visited Cadw still haven't pulled their socks up in regards to the steal fencing around much of site, so it remains to be unknown what is actually happening at this stage.

Hope you enjoy the video!
Thanks

Neath is a town and community situated in the principal area of Neath Port Talbot, Wales. Historically in Glamorgan, the town of Neath is located on the river of the same name, 7 miles (11 km) east northeast of Swansea.
Historically, Neath was the crossing place of the River Neath and has existed as a settlement since the Romans established the fort of Nido or Nidum in the AD 70s. The Roman fort took its name from the River Nedd; the meaning is obscure but 'shining' or simply 'river' have been suggested. Neath is the Anglicised form.
St Illtyd visited the Neath area and established a settlement in what is now known as Llantwit on the northern edge of the town. The church of St. Illtyd was built at this settlement and was enlarged in Norman times. The Norman and pre Norman church structure remains intact and active to day within the Church in Wales. The Welsh language name for Neath is Castell-nedd, referring to the Norman Neath Castle.
Neath was a market town that expanded with the arrival of the Industrial Revolution in the 18th century with new manufacturing industries of iron, steel and tinplate. The Mackworth family, who owned the Gnoll Estate. The River Neath is a navigable estuary and Neath was a river port until recent times. The heavy industries are no more with the town being a commercial and tourism centre. Attractions for visitors are the ruins of the Cistercian Neath Abbey, the Gnoll Park and Neath Indoor Market.
