Uplands has a rich culture that we feel has never been heralded to its full potential. We have used our community budget and match funding from the Heritage Lottery fund to signpost the Dylan Thomas Trail.
The process was started by meeting with council officers, the proprietor of 5 Cwmdonkin Drive, Dylan's birthplace, local artists and craftsmen. Permission was sought and granted from Virgin Media and BT to allow their boxes to be painted.
Key people associated with Dylan such as Howard Marks, Captain Cat, Leon Atkin and of course Dylan himself all feature in the trail.
