Digital Streams Townhill

Thethird Digital Streams project took place in the Townhill/Blaenymaes area of Swansea, along the Hillside Wildlife corridor as well as a few places slightly further afield such as Penllergare Valley woods, Crymlyn Bog and the Tennant Canal. Many of the places we photographed and explored were unknown to a large number of the participants, yet all were places that had made significant contributions towards shaping the landscape of Swansea and supporting the flaura and fauna that can be found there.
