Cambrian Colliery

The Cambrian Colliery was a large coal mine that operated between 1872 and 1967 near Clydach Vale in the Rhondda Valley, south Wales. It is notable for its huge production and for two infamous explosion disasters, in 1905 and 1965, in which a total of 64 miners were killed.

Mynydd Maendy

Mynydd Maendy is a hilltop and moorland, near Gilfach Goch, in south Wales, to the southwest of Tonyrefail. As with the Maindee district of Newport the name derives from the Welsh maen dy meaning "stone house". A wind farm and an Iron Age Celtic hillfort are located on the summit. The large turbines of the wind farm can be seen from over 20 miles away on a clear day, and have raised environmental concerns. The wind farm administrative centre is located in nearby Tonyrefail.
