Since the late 1950s, the artist Falcon Hildred has pursued a unique personal project to make a visual record of the buildings of a disappearing industrial culture, of what he calls ‘worktown’. His detailed works capture vital information about townscapes, mills, factories, quarries, bridges, workers’ houses, libraries, chapels, and other industrial sites in locations such as South London, Coventry, Newcastle, Newport, Cardiff, Merthyr Tydfil, and Blaenau Ffestiniog.
