About Port Talbot

Known for

The steelworks (one of the largest in Europe, creating the extraordinary industrial skyline), the birthplace of Richard Burton and Anthony Hopkins, and a South Wales town defined by its steel identity

A little history

Port Talbot Steelworks — one of the largest integrated steel plants in Europe — defines the town's skyline and identity. Richard Burton, one of the greatest actors of the 20th century, was born in Pontrhydyfen nearby in 1925. Anthony Hopkins was born in Port Talbot in 1937. The town has produced extraordinary artistic talent.

Local tip

The steelworks skyline at night is genuinely extraordinary. The Richard Burton Museum in Pontrhydyfen. The Afan Forest Park for mountain biking. The Anthony Hopkins connection celebrated locally.
