Aberdulais is one of the oldest industrial sites in Britain. The waters of the Dulais River just outside Neath have been driving the wheels of industry here for over 400 years, a tradition that continues to this day. Today the waters of the River Dulais are used to make Aberdulais Falls self-sufficient in environmentally friendly energy. It has the largest electricity-generating waterwheel in Europe.
