This was an excellent way to spend 2 hours. Peter, the guide, gives a thoughtful walk through of the social geography of Penarth. His deep knowledge of the history of the region, indeed of Britain generally, means that he easily answers all sorts of questions - on architecture, on social structure, on historical politics, on culture: He loves and appreciates Penarth and this is very obvious. This is clearly a labour of love. I am so pleased that we did this- including my partner, who started off a bit skeptically, and ended wanting more. Thanks Peter.
How Penarth came to be what it is today

Two hours plus of engaging conversation with Peter, who certainly knows his subject. Delightful walk for which we (wife and I) are now enriched.
Hadn't heard of Dagger Town before, might pop into The Clive for a pint...
Thanks Peter, we really enjoyed the walk.

Fantastic Walking Tour of Penarth!
Jennifer_V, Apr 2022
I visited Cardiff for work and had an afternoon free. My friend and I decided to take the tour as neither of us knew anything about the community.
This was a fantastic walking tour of the Penarth with a knowledgeable and friendly guide who peeled away the industrial history and urban development not always visible today.
The tour was a great way to spend the afternoon!
