The Pierhead building

Outs the old building in Cardiff bay that controlled all the shipping

You can't visit the Cardiff Bay area and miss a visit to this gem. It shouts out to be visited with it's bright red bricks and wonderful architecture. Yes, it has a story to tell and what a story - all about the development of the docks and the history of coal and the man who helped make it happen the then Marquess of Bute. I could go on, there is so much to see and we shall be going back for a further visit.

The interior is beautifully laid out for the visitor with hear/see aids telling the story with illustrations, pictures, artifacts, etc.etc. so much to see you could spend hours there. It also has an audio/visual show on the ground floor which is very enlightening.
