 The Ancient Cwmbran and the Cistercians Project investigated several sites of archaeological interest in the Thornhill and Greenmeadow areas of Cwmbran over an 18 month period. This work was carried out with the help of volunteers from the community. The project also celebrated the medieval pilgrim heritage of the area through a complementary art project, produced a carved statue of St Derfel, a medieval crop growing project and hopes to generate future tourism to the area.
