10 Poorest Places in The UK
What are the poorest places in the UK? The last thing that’ll come to mind when the UK is mentioned is poverty. It’s not among the countries you’ll associate poverty with. This should be clearly noted as we begin. Yet, not every part of Great Britain has the affluence of London, Edinburgh, or Glasgow. Some places in the UK are poor. We’re here to show you the 10 poorest places in the UK.
These places are the same neighborhood with the biggest shortages of basic social infrastructure and facilities such as playgrounds, parks, pubs, shops, and sports centers. You’ll find some of them among the areas left behind in England, Wales, and Scotland. Authorities have to do something about these 10 poorest places in the UK.
10. Newport, Wales
We’re starting in Wales. One of the poorest places in the UK is a city and county borough in Gwent in Wales. We are referring to Newport which is situated on the River Usk close to the river’s confluence with the Severn Estuary. It is 19 kilometers northeast of Cardiff. Newport’s population of 145,700 at the 2011 census notwithstanding, all is not going on fine with the city. It can’t get past its nagging poverty.
Imagine this: of Newport’s 95 neighborhoods in Newport, 23 currently rank among the most deprived in Wales. Do the math, and you will find out that this is about 24 percent of the authority. That’s the biggest percentage of deprivation in the country.
9. Greenock, Inverclyde, Scotland
Wales doesn’t have a monopoly on poor places. Scotland has, at least, one of the 10 poorest places in the UK. You’ll find the ninth on our list in Inverclyde. This is Greenock, a town and administrative center in the Inverclyde council area. The town with a population of 44,248 is located in the west-central Lowlands of Scotland.
As proof of how gripping the poverty state of this town is, its population reduced by almost 3,000 within 10 years. In a report that shows how poor some parts of the nations are, Greenock tops the list. In the Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation for 2020, Greenock has the highest number of deprived areas in Scotland.
8. Halton, England
England too has some of the poorest places in the UK and the first of these on this list is the eighth poorest place in the UK, Halton. The district and unitary authority that registers its name on this list has a borough status in Cheshire.
When you consider its ranking as one of the worst areas in England and Wales by a global children's charity that also ranks Halton as one of the worst areas in England and Wales to be a girl, you will understand why Halton slipped into the rank of the 20 most deprived areas in England. Other indices like life expectancy, children poverty which is 25 percent, health inequality, and unemployment rates are not in a positive light for this district.
7. Merthyr Tydfil, Wales
We’re back in Wales to find Merthyr Tydfil, the main town in Merthyr Tydfil County Borough, as the seventh of the 10 poorest places in the UK. The town administered by Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council is about 37 kilometers north of Cardiff. Often called Merthyr, the town believed to be named after Tydfil, daughter of King Brychan of Brycheiniog, has a population of 43,820.
This town seems to be hitting above its weight as the go-to place for those looking for gloomy job news. As of March 2018, the unemployment rate was 5.7 percent. Even though it's an iron producer, poor transportation service is the bane of this town that makes it so poor.
6. South Elmsall, England
South Elmsall is a small town and a civil parish lying to the east of Hemsworth with a population of 6,519. When it comes to safety, this town is among the most dangerous of small towns, villages, and cities in West Yorkshire. It’s faring badly in income deprivation, employment deprivation, education, skills and training deprivation, health deprivation, and disability. The 2021 overall crime rate in South Elmsall was 111 crimes per 1,000 people Living in this small town, you will be on a downward spiral of ill health and at the risk of premature death or the impairment of quality of life caused by poor physical or mental health.

12 Most Hated Places to Live in Wales
What are the most hated places in Wales? There are surely two sides to every coin. When you see the passion with which some people admire and love their homes in Wales and name nice seaside towns, dockyards, communities, villages, and hamlets in Wales, you will be left to wonder if there can ever be anywhere hated in Wales. Yet, there are places in Wales that are also passionately derided, mocked, and treated with utmost disdain. While doing our due diligence, we discover that some hated towns in Wales are not hated absolutely, not by all. In this video, we have compiled the list of the 12 most hated places to live in Wales. Please note that many of them are also among the worst towns in Wales.
12. Cwmbran
We’re kick-starting this in Cwmbran, a town in the county borough of Torfaen. A lot of terrible things have been said about the residents and the by fellow residents and outsiders. However, the main reason we are mentioning this town is the safety concern. While it might not top in the overall crime rates, you have to look more closely to find up to three towns of its status with a higher crime rate in Wales. Thus, this town is hated, not for environmental factors, but for human factors, occasioned by the residents.
11. Colwyn Bay
Colwyn Bay, a town, community, and seaside resort in Conwy County Borough on the northern coast has expanded to the point of becoming the second-largest community and business center in the north of Wales and the 14th largest in the whole of Wales. Yet, it has little or nothing to show for that economically. It’s a drab and miserable place to live. Compounding its woes are its high crime rates. Its beach is dirty and hasn’t shown anything for the efforts to make it better; the horrendous concrete building appears as if the last time it was maintained was 1970.
10. Aberdare
We once argued against the notion that this is a town loved by criminals. Yet, we can’t turn a blind high to the high crime rate of this town in the Cynon Valley area of Rhondda Cynon Taf. As of the last check, it’s the third most dangerous small town in Mid-Glamorgan. You just need to see what we’ve discovered about this town in our video about the 12 worst places to live. If it is conveniently and justifiably listed in that ranking, we all know that no one will love to live in one of the worst places.
9. Fairbourne
Fairbourne, a tiny village nestled between Snowdonia National Park and the Irish Sea has been begging for a slot on this ranking. The place is currently facing an existential crisis, no thanks to the high risk of future flooding as a result of climate change. A while ago, Natural Resources Wales (NRW), the organization in charge of flood management in Wales, spent £6.8m on strengthening 2.9 kilometers of concrete tidal defenses so that over 400 properties in the town can be protected from storm surges and flooding, and to complete other constructions. But we’re not happy to let you know that the Gwynedd Council, in charge of this village has said since 2014 that it couldn’t maintain flood defenses of the village indefinitely. By 2054 latest, the village will no longer be livable. Who would ever love to live in such a place?
8. Denbighshire
You might want to argue against the inclusion of Denbighshire on this list if you consider some of its towns like Llangollen, a community situated on the River Dee. However, when it comes to how good and convenient a place is for living, the entire county is generally hated, except for a pocket of towns there like Llangollen and Ruthin. Reviewers have not been generally kind to this county in the northeast of Wales.

Places to see in ( Usk - UK )
Places to see in ( Usk - UK )
Usk is a small town in Monmouthshire, south-east Wales, situated 10 miles northeast of Newport. It is located on the River Usk, which is spanned by an arched stone bridge at the western entrance to the town.
A castle above the town overlooks the ancient crossing point. It developed as a small market town, with some industry including the making of Japanware, and a notable prison. In recent years Usk has become known for its history of success in Britain in Bloom competitions, winning the Large Village award in 2005.
The first stone bridge at Usk, replacing one of wood, was built around 1750 to the designs of Welsh architect William Edwards. Unlike the bridge downstream at Caerleon, it withstood the great floods of 1795. The bridge was strengthened and widened in 1836, but two of its arches were destroyed by floods in 1877 and later replaced.
From the late 18th century, Usk became well known for the high quality of its japanware, a process of decorating metals by applying a lacquer to tinplate. The process, known as Pontypool japan, was first developed in the west by Thomas Allgood of nearby Pontypool and was taken on in Usk in 1763 by his grandsons Thomas and Edward Allgood. Products from Usk included tin trays, jardinières, and coal boxes. However output declined with changing fashions in the 19th century, and the last Usk japanware was produced in 1860 on the site of what is now Bunning's builders' merchants.
Usk was twinned with the German town Graben-Neudorf in Baden-Württemberg in 1980. Over the past few years there have been numerous visits between the two towns, with the Usk Youth Brass Band making its most recent visit in autumn 2006. In 2006 the colour scheme of Usk in Bloom was based on those within the crests of both Usk and Graben-Neudorf.
( Usk - UK ) is well know as a tourist destination because of the variety of places you can enjoy while you are visiting Usk . Through a series of videos we will try to show you recommended places to visit in Usk - UK

Poorest Towns in the UK – Newport, Wales
Why is Newport, Wales so poor? Newport is one of the towns in the UK that people don’t migrate to. The reason? It’s one of the poorest places to live in the United Kingdom. We included it in a video that ranked it along with other poor towns in the country. But time wouldn’t allow us to do justice to that account in the video. Yet, we feel we need to tell you more so that you can be convinced beyond doubt and sentiment that this town in the beautiful and tranquil countryside of Wales is indeed poor. As usual, this video will not cast aspersion on the competence of the governmental authority, it’s only a wake-up call.
But to start with, where’s Newport located? It’s a county borough situated on the River Usk not far from its confluence with the Severn Estuary. The Welsh town is located 19 kilometers northeast of Cardiff. We understand that Newport, the third-largest authority with city status in Wales, was granted that status during the Golden Jubilee celebration of the late Queen. Yet, for the purpose of this video, we would consider this 7th most populous authority overall a town as we have done in our video about the poorest towns in Britain. Kindly bear that in mind as we discuss the place that became a unitary authority in 1996 and which is part of the Cardiff-Newport metropolitan area.
Is Newport Really Poor?
We honestly wouldn’t have considered Newport poor and ranked it anywhere near the poorest towns if we hadn’t heard about its damning position in the most recent Index of Multiple Deprivation in Wales. The report shows that it is now the most deprived area in Wales. The Welsh Index of Multiple Deprivation (WIMD), before arriving at this conclusion, measures deprivation levels primarily on income and employment. It also considers domains of health, education, community safety, access to services, living environment and housing.
According to the recent WIMD data, Newport is unfortunately not making enough or considerable progress in its effort to address the deprivation earlier observed in 2011 and 2014. In 2011, as many as 16 areas of this town ranked among the 10 percent most deprived in Wales. By then, it was the fourth most deprived in the country. In 2014, the number remained the same and the ranking soared.
But now, the number of neighborhoods ranked among the most deprived in Wales has grown to 23 which is equal to 24 percent of the authority. And the remainder of the 95 neighborhoods in Newport are at risk of becoming deprived if this trend continues. The current rate is the biggest percentage of any local authority in the country. That explains why the entire area is considered the most deprived.
The Most Deprived Areas of Newport
Yes, we know that not all of the 95 Newport neighborhoods on WIMD records are deprived. But consider what we just said. If 24.2 percent of them are found among the most deprived 10 percent in Wales, and 60 percent of them are in the top 50 percent, doesn’t that hoist a big banner announcing deprivation?

Places to see in ( Pontypool - UK )
Places to see in ( Pontypool - UK )
Pontypool is a town that is home to approximately 36,000 people in the county borough of Torfaen, within the historic boundaries of Monmouthshire in South Wales. It is situated on the Afon Lwyd river in the county borough of Torfaen. Situated on the eastern edge of the South Wales coalfields, Pontypool grew around industries including iron and steel production, coal mining and the growth of the railways. A rather artistic manufacturing industry which also flourished here alongside heavy industry was Japanning, a type of lacquer ware.
Pontypool itself consists of several smaller districts, these include Abersychan, Cwmffrwdoer, Pontnewynydd, Trevethin, Penygarn, Wainfelin, Tranch, Brynwern, Pontymoile, Blaendare, Cwmynyscoy, New Inn, Griffithstown and Sebastopol.
Pontypool has a notable history as one of the earliest industrial towns in Wales. The town and its immediate surroundings were home to significant industrial and technological innovations, with links to the iron industry dating back to the early fifteenth century when a bloomery furnace was established at Pontymoile. During the sixteenth century, largely due to the influence of the Hanbury family, the area developed its association with the iron industry and continued to consolidate its position in the seventeenth century, when the development of the town began in earnest. Throughout the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, the metallurgical and extractive industries of the area, along with the development of the canals and railways, provided the impetus to the expansion of Pontypool and its surrounding villages and communities.
The construction of the Monmouthshire Canal during the 1790s connected Pontnewynydd to Newport and later connected with the Brecknock and Abergavenny Canal at Pontymoile in 1812. Tramroads leading from industrial areas within an eight-mile radius of the canal converged at either Pontnewynydd or Pontymoile.
The tramroads and canals were superseded by the railways in the mid-nineteenth century. From 1845, work commenced on establishing a railway from Pontypool to Newport. The line opened to passengers in 1852 and connected with Blaenavon in 1854. It eventually came under the management of the Great Western Railway. Another line was constructed during the 1860s and 1870s to connect Pontypool with Newport via Caerleon. Connections were also made with Abergavenny, Hereford and the Taff Vale. Pontypool had three railway stations, namely Crane Street, Clarence Street and Pontypool Road. Line closures during the 1960s greatly reduced the valley's railway connections, which were replaced by modern roads. The only passenger line still operating within Pontypool is at an unmanned station in New Inn. Pontypool & New Inn station is on the Welsh Marches Line with trains provided by Arriva Trains Wales.
Pontypool is well known for its extensive park. Pontypool Park was the historic seat of the Hanbury family, who developed a permanent residence in Pontypool in c. 1694 and, under the direction of Major John Hanbury, subsequently established a deer park in the early 1700s. The park became a venue for recreation and enjoyment for the Hanbury family and their associates.

Newport Walk: City Centre【4K】
Located in South Wales, around 10 miles northeast of Cardiff, is the city of Newport, or Casnewydd in Welsh.
Geographically Newport lies along the River Usk close to its confluence with the Severn Estuary leading into the Bristol Channel. It was historically a part of the county of Monmouthshire, though now it is its own unitary authority.
The Normans invaded Wales from circa 1081. By the 12th century they had settled in Newport and built a castle on Stow Hill. The remains of this castle are said to be buried underground following a railway tunnel dig in the 19th century. A second castle was built in the 14th century along the River Usk. The ruins of this castle are visible to this day.
Newport was established as a port town from the Medieval era, having outgrown the earlier Roman town of Caerleon (or Isca Augusta as it was known to the Romans) about five miles to the northeast. Newport was the largest coal exporting port in Wales up until the mid 19th century, at which point Cardiff superseded it.
In 1796 the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal from Newport to Pontymoile Basin was opened for the transport of coal and iron. This brought about a boost in prosperity in Newport in the decades that followed. The canal was abandoned in 1962.
In 1839 the Newport Rising occurred. This was the last large-scale armed insurrection in Britain. The conflict took place between the Chartists and Newport Council. Chartism was a working-class movement based on the People's Charter of 1838 which pushed for the right for every man to vote regardless of class, alongside a secret ballot system to protect voter anonymity. John Frost and 3,000 other Chartists marched on the Westgate Hotel. The British Army were deployed to protect the police, although to protest took a turn when the soldiers opened fire on the crowd, killing 22 and injuring many more.
In the aftermath of these events the leaders of the march were convicted with treason and sentenced to death. Following a huge public outcry these sentences were commuted to exile in Australia. Eventually the leaders all received a pardon. A commemorative sculpture of the Newport Rising is seen on Commercial Street just after the 6-minute mark outside the Westgate Hotel where the events took place. It should be noted that the hotel was since demolished and rebuilt in 1884. In 1977 John Frost Square (18-and-a-half minutes in to the video) was completed, named after the Chartist leader in tribute.
On Bridge Street, around the 13-minute mark, there can be seen a statue of Sir Charles Morgan. In the 19th century Morgan helped Newport become a major coal exporter by connecting the old town to the docks and helping set up the Monmouthshire railway.
In 2002 Newport was granted city status in conjunction with the Queen's Golden Jubilee. The other town to become a city that year was Preston.
Newport is represented in sport by Newport County A.F.C. and Newport R.F.C, who play their home games of football and rugby union respectively both at Rodney Parade on the east bank of the River Usk.
Famous people from Newport include actors Desmond Llewellyn and Michael Sheen. Also, the comedy hip hop group, Goldie Lookin Chain, formed in Newport.

----- Short History -----
- Probably built in the late 19th century.
- A narrow-gauge tramway was built after 1875, to connect the various limestone quarries at Foel Ffraith with limekilns near Henllys Vale Colliery.
- It associated with the Black Mountain quarries behind.
- Owned by Black Mountain Anthracite Co, later the New Henllys Anthracite Co. Ltd..
- Coal was obtained from the nearby Henllys Vale Colliery and limestone from nearby quarries via tramway.
- The chimney was used to power machinery. It had to be tall because of low wind down in the valley.
- Its four kilns are built into the hillside with an usually high bank of 10m.
- The kilns were connected to the Swansea Vale Railway.
- Henllys Vale closed by the 1930s, and most of the buildings were demolished by the 1950s.
- The chimney and limekilns were restored in 1986.

Places to see in ( Penarth - UK )
Places to see in ( Penarth - UK )
Penarth is a town in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, about 5.2 miles south west from the city centre of the Welsh capital city of Cardiff and lying on the north shore of the Severn Estuary at the southern end of Cardiff Bay. Penarth is the wealthiest seaside resort in the Cardiff Urban Area, and the second largest town in the Vale of Glamorgan, next only to the administrative centre of Barry.
During the Victorian era Penarth was a highly popular holiday destination, promoted nationally as The Garden by the Sea[3] and was packed by visitors from the Midlands and the West Country as well as day trippers from the South Wales valleys, mostly arriving by train. Today, the town, with its traditional seafront, continues to be a regular summer holiday destination (predominantly for older visitors), but their numbers are much lower than was common from Victorian times until the 1960s, when cheap overseas package holidays were introduced.
Although the number of holiday visitors has greatly declined, the town retains a substantial retired population, representing over 25% of residents, but Penarth is now predominantly a dormitory town for Cardiff commuters. Penarth is a Welsh placename and could be a combination of the word: pen meaning head and arth meaning bear, hence 'Head of the Bear' or 'Bear’s Head'.
Penarth Dock was a port and harbour which was located between Penarth Head and the River Ely, at Penarth, Glamorgan, Wales. It opened in 1865 and reached its heyday before World War I, after which followed a slow decline till it closed in the 1960s. The site has since been redeveloped to become Penarth Marina, which now opens into Cardiff Bay.
Penarth Pier is a Victorian era pier in the town of Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, South Wales. The pier was opened in 1898 and was a popular attraction to seaside-goers at the time, who also enjoyed trips on pleasure steamers that operated from the pier. It has on several occasions been damaged by vessels colliding with the structure and in 1931, a fire broke out in one of the pavilions. This wooden pavilion was never replaced, but a concrete pavilion has been used over the years as a concert hall, ballroom, cinema and for other purposes. It is currently home to the Penarth Pier Pavilion.
The coal trade from Penarth docks eventually petered out and the docks closed in 1936, only reopening for commercial and military use during World War II. From the 1950s, and up until 1965, the basins were utilised by the Royal Navy to mothball dozens of destroyers and frigates from the no longer needed wartime fleet of warships, until they were sold to foreign nations or broken up. By 1967, after barely a hundred years of commercial operations, the docks lay unused and derelict, and much of it was used for landfill. The largest basin, No 2 dock at the Cogan end, is now completely filled in, grassed over and surrounded by roadways.
In 1987, the new Penarth Marina village opened on the disused docks site. The No 1 dock and outer basin were re-excavated or dredged out to provide some 350 yacht berths, surrounded by extensive modern waterside homes and several marine engineering yards. The original dock office and Excise House is now in use as a popular restaurant, with only the Grade II listed Marine Hotel remaining derelict and boarded up, awaiting suitable redevelopment plans. The Penarth Marina development was one of the key catalysts to the similar later redevelopment of the Cardiff Bay area. Penarth lies 5.2 miles (8.4 km) south west of Cardiff by road and has a road infrastructure that has been much improved in recent years, together with a traditional rail link.
Cosmeston Lakes Country Park has been a popular attraction, throughout the years since it was developed in 1970. Apart from the lake and a wide range of water fowl there are acres of pleasant walks in woodlands and on the heath. Cosmeston Medieval Village is open daily and features historical re-enactments during the summer weekends and on bank holidays. The reconstruction of the historical village has been described as the best of its kind in Britain. Turner House Gallery is located at the top end of Plymouth Road and is the current exhibition space for Ffotogallery the national photography development agency for Wales.

Imo is a flautist/flutist (flute player), and these vlogs will often take you behind the scenes of the life of a professional folk musician. Stand by for bits and bobs of live folk music and dance as they pop up in our day-to-day lives.
These videos will not generally feature recorded background music, making them extra suitable for people who aren't keen on pop music!
Follow this channel for daily-life vlogs (6 days a week, usually), content relating to the flute, travel (particularly to Lisbon, Portugal), folk musician lifestyle, and to see what life is like for this little family in our corner of South Wales in the UK.
