Editing Cardiff Bay (section)

==History==
{{Main|Tiger Bay}}
On 15 June 1910 the [[Terra Nova Expedition]] left the Roath Basin in Cardiff's docklands and headed south to Antarctica. On board were Captain [[Robert Falcon Scott]] and members of his British Antarctic Expedition, who aimed to be the first to reach the South Pole. Scott's entire party of five died on the return journey from the pole.

Cardiff Bay played a major part in [[Cardiff]]’s development by being the means of exporting [[coal]] from the [[South Wales Valleys]] to the rest of the world, helping to power the industrial age. The [[coal mining]] industry helped fund the building of [[Cardiff]] into the [[Capital of Wales|capital city of Wales]] and helped the [[John Crichton-Stuart, 3rd Marquess of Bute|Third Marquis of Bute]], who owned the docks, become the richest man in the world at the time.

As Cardiff exports grew, so did its population; dockworkers and sailors from across the world settled in neighbourhoods close to the docks, known as Tiger Bay, and communities from up to 50 different nationalities, including [[Norwegian people|Norwegian]], [[Somali people|Somali]], [[Yemeni people|Yemeni]], [[Greeks|Greek]], [[Spanish people|Spanish]], [[Italian People|Italian]], [[Caribbean people|Caribbean]] and [[Irish people|Irish]] helped create the unique [[multicultural]] character of the area.<ref name=":0" />

After the [[Second World War]] most of the industry closed down and the area became a neglected part of Cardiff, a wasteland of derelict docks and mudflats. Social exclusion of the area's inhabitants rose and Cardiff Bay had above average levels of unemployment.<ref name=":0" /> But, in 1999, new life was injected into the area by the building of the [[Cardiff Bay Barrage]], one of the most controversial building projects of the day but also one of the most successful.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.newswales.co.uk/index.php?section=Environment&F=1&id=1204 |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120904222152/http://www.newswales.co.uk/index.php?section=Environment&F=1&id=1204 |url-status=dead |archive-date=4 September 2012 |title=Report on Cardiff Bay |publisher=Newswales.co.uk |access-date=2013-09-30 |df=dmy }}</ref>
