The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.
There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The Rhondda Cynon Taf Council public library is located on a triangle of land between Park Place and North Terrace, next door to the community centre. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2411898 By 2009, the library had become shabby externally, and was in need of internal updating. With a £120,000 grant from CyMAL, the Welsh Assembly Government Capital Funding division, and £12,000 from the council, refurbishment and updating took place between November 2009 and January 2010. The result is an attractive exterior and modernised interior, with a new ICT suite.
