Gwent is a mixture of agriculture and dairy
farming to the East and mining and
industry to the West.
The Wye Valley forms the border with
England and features some of the
region's finest scenery. Newport is
the administrative centre for the
county, where a wide expanse of
parkland is the setting for 17th-
century Tredegar House.
The North of the County is bordered by the Black
Mountains and the Brecon Beacons and to the
South is the Mouth of the River Severn and the
two suspension bridges which takes the M4 over
to England.
