Tributes have been paid to a 25-year-old bricklayer who died in a quad bike crash in Ebbw Vale.
Ben Fry, from Nantyglo in Blaenau Gwent, died on January 8, on his way home to his family.
Police were called at around 5.55pm to Canterbury Road after Mr Fry, who had been riding a quad bike, was found unresponsive by a member of the public on the path between Beaufort and Brynmawr.
Officers attended the track, known locally as the Black Path, along with Wales Air Ambulance and Welsh Ambulance Service, however a doctor from the Emergency Medical Retrieval and Transfer Service confirmed the 25-year-old could not be saved.

Flowers and candles have been left on a steel barrier on the cycle path, and a gofundme page has also been set up to help towards the cost of Mr Fry's funeral.
Close friend Arron Davies, who set up the fundraiser, said the soon-to-be father-of-two was a kind-hearted man who would be missed by many in the area.
His post on the gofundme page said: "This fundraiser is to support Ben Fry’s family through this very sad time so they can put him to rest. Unfortunately on January 8 Ben sadly passed away in a tragic quad bike accident while he was on his way home.
"He will be sadly missed by a lot of people, he was a very loved man and most of all he’s going to be missed by his son Riley who’s only four years old bless him, his girlfriend Danielle and his unborn child.
"Any donation would be really appreciated by his friends and family at this awful time, thank you very much."
So far £1,880 has been raised through donations to the fundraiser, with a target goal of £3,000.
