Founded in 1861 on the grounds of a former sawmill, Inigo Jones Slateworks originally started crafting school writing slates. Since then, the company has flourished, diversifying its products to include slate architectural items, memorials, and gifts crafted from indigenous Welsh slate which are transported across the UK and further afield. The slate works has become a beacon of tourism and education; visitors can embark on self-guided tours, immersing themselves in the exhibitions which showcase geological phenomena, historical connections, intricate artistry, calligraphy, and letter cutting ? all associated with the slate industry. On-site amenities, open to passing trade, include a showroom and visitor centre offering a showcase of local crafts, a popular caf? and a farm shop (tenanted until 2025) offering fresh produce.
