Aberafan Centre

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Aberafan Shopping Centre is the only indoor shopping complex in Port Talbot, South Wales.

The shopping complex, which has a floorspace of 24,100 m² (259,000 sq ft) and was refurbished in the late 1990s,[1] comprises over sixty stores on two levels and houses the central library for Port Talbot. Where the library is situated today, there was formerly a market area with stalls operated mainly by local traders. Examples of high-profile stores in the shopping centre include: Woolworths, Wilkinson, Boots, JD Sports and Superdrug.

[edit] Aberafan House

Rising to the south-east of the Aberafan Centre complex is Aberafan House. This concrete tower block is prominently visible when travelling through Port Talbot on the M4 motorway. The building is used partly by government organisations and partly by private firms.
