About Blackwood
- The Caerphilly county borough area in which Blackwood sits was one of the most intensively mined coalfields in the world during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The Sirhowy Valley, which runs through the heart of the Blackwood area, was lined with collieries from its head at Tredegar to its mouth at Newport, and the communities along the valley were almost entirely dependent on coal mining for their livelihoods. The decline of the coal industry in the second half of the twentieth century had a profound effect on the valley communities, and the area has undergone significant regeneration in recent decades, with new employment in manufacturing, retail, and public services replacing the lost mining jobs.
