Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Former Llanwern Sports and Social Club The club was closed by Corus in 2001 despite a vigorous campaign by the local newspaper, the South Wales Argus, for the club to be kept open. The subject was raised as a question in the House of Commons. A quote from the discussion:

"Corus said that it proposed to close the club because it was becoming uneconomic. It was becoming uneconomic because of a lack of usage, and the lack of usage was because Corus was making steelworkers redundant at Llanwern."

Update 2010

A photo taken in April 2010 https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1991162 shows that the building has been demolished.
