Penallta colliery 1990

My family come from this area many years ago, and i was told this mine belonged to my granddad before it was sold to Bitanna coals!, my grandad was given a grant to set up cottages, a pub etc which is now penybryn! we also have family allover this valley!

@100ofhoo: thanks for your comment. One aim of my images is to pay homage to the people who built up our industries and the people who have been working there. So, I am glad to see, that you seem to appreciate them. You will find more images from South Wales on my website, BTW. Harald
