Hi all, first place I've got photos of, hope they're okay. It was built during the post-war period, on the outskirts of Llanelli, near Furnace. 46 houses were built on the site, but since then most of them have been abandoned, though a few are still occupied. For years the government have been saying they're going to fix the place up, but I guess they didn't want to spend money on it and just left it there to rot. I wonder what it would be like to live surrounded by these empty husks, but anyway carrying on...
On the way up to the location, we noticed this building on the side of the road. Have no idea what it is, an old coal shed perhaps? The area itself is called Furnace so it's likely connected to that.
So moving on, we made our way up to the estate itself. We could only access one of the houses, due to the rest being boarded up or obstructed by weeds, so I apologize for the mainly exterior only shots.
We headed into one of the houses, the only one we found accessible. Sorry for the crappy quality, my hand was shaky.
Back outside we go!
Sorry it's a bit pic heavy, I don't really do this often and I wanted to get as many as I could. It's a really open area, so anyone can walk around and take pics.
