Premises of the Parc & Dare band, located on Dumfries Street, at the southern edge of the derelict Tabernacle chapel. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2790411 Originally formed as the Cwmparc Temperance Drum and Fife Band in 1893, the band went all brass a year later to become the Cwmparc Silver Band. They were renamed the Parc & Dare Workmen’s Silver Band after they began receiving financial support from the Ocean Coal Company who operated the nearby Parc and Dare collieries.
