Penrhyn Castle: 'Time to tell the stories'

An art project hopes to heal emotional divisions still felt in a slate community, more than a century after Britain's longest industrial dispute.

Thousands of men were locked out of the Penrhyn slate quarries in Gwynedd after a mass walkout in 1900.

Artists will recreate a representation of the quarries in the former owner's home - Penrhyn Castle, outside Bangor.

Rhian Cahill, visitor experience manager at Penrhyn Castle, said: "It's time to tell the stories".
