The Cynon Valley is surrounded by the history of an industrial age, factories, iron works, and coal mines, all now in decline.
"From being a mere village in an agricultural district at the beginning of the 19th century, the place grew rapidly in population owing to the abundance of coal and iron ore, and the population of the whole parish, 1,486 in 1801, increased tenfold during the first half of the 19th century.[2] It has since declined owing to the loss of most of the heavy industry.
