The castle was sited so as to control the principal route between Nant Conway and Meironnydd by way of the Lledr Valley.
To the right is the 1846 pilastered previous town hall: somewhat less domi- nant than the current exuberant town hall.
Pictured here only two years after opening, the lake, created from a 'malarial bog' by damming the Nant Fawr Brook, proved extremely problematic.
This street was once called Heol-y-Nant (Brook Street) from the brook which ran through Blaenavon.
The house opposite is Nant Myniawyd.

The Tal-y-Llyn railway was used originally between 1866 and 1946 to haul slate from the Bryn Eglwys quarry at Nant Gwernol down to Tywyn Wharf station.

Further east, 18th-century Mansfield House on the right with its two canted bay windows and pedimented doorcase is the best building, while the one with three dormers beyond is now a county branch library
Just east of the village, where Main Road curves towards Bants Lane, is this large factory which employed over 3,000 people in the 1960s.
Their canted full-height bay windows step down the hill in an elegant rhythm.
They rely on simple but excellent details, such as the timber-bracketed door hood and an unusual cantilevered canted bay window prominent to the right - no incongruous plastic windows and doors in
the Steine, and on the east side opposite are some excellent late 18th-century houses amid taller Victorian ones, but mostly single houses rather than terraces; the bow fronts are earlier than the canted
