Geography - Cardiff Bay Fieldwork Part 2


Once we had finished our debate we got soaked as we made our way to the Visitor Centre to see the scale model of the Bay.





The tour guide has worked in the bay since 1973. He used to be a docker and could tell us lots of information about how the Bay used to look.




We then watched the video that showed us how Cardiff has changed over the last 200 years. It was only a small town in the 1790's.

We even took Freddie Framework to Cardiff Bay.


Roald Dahl was christened in the Norwegian Church.




We found out that this building is where all of the coal was measured. The Titanic set sail using coal from the valleys, that coal would have been recorded in this building.













This is one of the locks that allow boats to come into and go out of the Bay.

  1. Hi Mr Marlow

    I had so much fun when we went to Cardiff Bay. My favorite
    thing that we did was having a debate on school safety.
