Will Millard explores some of Wales鈥檚 hidden historic buildings, meeting the passionate individuals who are trying to save these vulnerable structures before it is too late.
Writer and adventurer Will Millard returns with more of Wales鈥檚 hidden wonders as he explores some of the country鈥檚 forgotten historic buildings.
In Wales, we are in danger of losing vital pieces of history that tell us who we once were. Beautiful buildings that are architectural gems but also some of the most endangered in the UK. These extraordinary structures, which can give us vital insights into how we once used to live, are in danger of disappearing forever.
From extravagant mansions to a 500-year-old farmhouse, crumbling chapels to a massive military fort, and from spectacular industrial sites to a stunning 19th-century theatre, Will travels the length and breadth of Wales to find some of our most vulnerable old buildings, telling their incredible histories and meeting the passionate individuals who are trying to rescue them before it is too late.
