A community project which has helped people connect with the rich history of their local area is celebrating the completion of a new £650,000 community and visitor attraction.
The Hidden Hillfort Community Heritage Centre is the culmination of a ten-year programme of community initiatives led by the Caerau and Ely Rediscovering (CAER) Heritage Project, a partnership between Cardiff University, Action in Caerau and Ely (ACE), local schools, residents and heritage partners.
Attended by First Minister Mark Drakeford in his capacity as the Member of Senedd for Cardiff West, the opening showcased the new state-of-the-art building and surrounding garden with volunteer-led tours running throughout the day and a VR experience and archaeological finds on display.
A new prehistoric-themed children's playground, funded by Wales and West Housing and Cardiff Council, is also now open to families.
