Blaenau Ffestiniog 
Description
Looking like some kind of surreal lunar landscape Blaenau couldn't be described as a pretty town, with over a centuries worth of slate spoil dumped on the hills it's a very odd looking place, but it's because of this slate heritage it has an impressive mine complex and a steam railway which draw in visitors.
