About Barry

  • Barry Island, the seaside resort that is connected to the mainland by a causeway, is one of the most popular day-trip destinations in South Wales — a place that has been attracting visitors from the South Wales valleys since the Victorian period, when the railway made it accessible from Cardiff and the mining communities of the valleys. The island's funfair, its beaches, and its fish and chip shops have made it a beloved institution in Welsh popular culture, and it was immortalised in the television comedy Gavin and Stacey, which was set partly in Barry and which brought the town to national attention. The filming locations from the series — including the house where Stacey's family lived and the chip shop where she worked — have become tourist attractions in their own right.
  • Barry Docks, which were built in the 1880s to handle the coal traffic from the South Wales valleys, were at their peak the busiest coal-exporting docks in the world — a complex of basins, locks, and warehouses that handled millions of tonnes of coal every year and that made Barry one of the most important ports in Britain. The docks were built by the Barry Railway Company as a rival to the established docks at Cardiff, and their success transformed Barry from a small village into a substantial town in the space of a few decades. The docks are now largely disused for commercial purposes, but the Victorian dock buildings and the Dock Offices are among the most impressive examples of late Victorian industrial architecture in Wales.
  • Porthkerry Country Park, on the western edge of Barry, is one of the most beautiful country parks in the Vale of Glamorgan — a 220-acre park that occupies a wooded valley running down to the sea, with a Victorian viaduct, ancient woodland, and a shingle beach at its foot. The park, which was created from the grounds of Porthkerry House, is one of the most popular walking destinations in the area, and the combination of woodland, meadow, and coastal scenery makes it one of the most varied and attractive green spaces in South Wales.
