It's been 35 years since the closure of Cwm Colliery in the south Wales Valleys. The pit, in Beddau near Pontypridd, was once at the heart of its local community, employing around 800 men. It was closed in 1986 - a year after the UK miners' strike - following a decline in the coal industry. This is what remains of the site today ⬇️ | WalesOnline

❄️ An icy discovery at Cwm Tips ❄️ We’ve been visiting Cwm Tips (Tynant, Beddau) regularly for well over a decade, yet at the weekend we came across something surprising on the slopes above the Cwm Coke Works — an icy tufa spring, frozen in the winter cold. What makes this especially interesting is that there wasn’t a tufa spring at this location before. This suggests that water movement through the tip has changed, with calcium-rich water now emerging at a new point, depositing tufa at the surf

🏴 SILENT MINES OF CYMRU | Wales’ Colliery Echoes | From Bronze-Age Depths to Valley Farewell ⚒️ Mining in Wales stretches back to the Bronze Age when small‐scale copper and lead workings tapped the rich geology of the land. Archaeological evidence shows that by Roman times, from the late 1st century AD onwards, the region yielded gold, copper, and lead ore. Over the 19th and early 20th centuries, coal mining exploded — especially in the South Wales Coalfield where by 1913 the port of Barry had

The Cwm-mawr Valley, in Llanelli This area is hidden away from view, The Cwm-mawr river cuts through the valley, before joining The River Dulais at Stradey Woods, the area has a wealth of history, from a tramway line and mine shafts, and a number of old buildings covered in mosses and undergrowth. There's even an old fort, probably from the Roman times. Nothing of the fort can be seen today, only the raised ground, that once held the inclosure fence, of the fort.

Once known as “The Slaughterhouse”, Cefn Coed Colliery was one of the deepest and most dangerous anthracite mines in the world. Sunk over 2,500 feet underground, men worked the brutal Big Vein seam in extreme heat, darkness, and constant danger from roof falls and methane gas. Between the 1920s and 1960s, lives were lost here, and the pit earned a fearsome reputation across South Wales. Today, Cefn Coed Colliery Museum stands as a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by miners in the Dulais
