The Squirrel, Pontycymer
The large white building on the corner of Oxford Street and Alexandra Road is stated in various online sources to be a pub, but whether that is still so here in early September 2014 looks unlikely.
The Oxford Street side (on the left) appears to be (or to have been) in use as an unnamed shop.

Pontycymmer Clinic in Pontycymer
Viewed across Alexandra Road. The bilingual name board shows the Welsh name of the village, Pontycymer and its English form Pontycymmer. In recent years, the spelling Pontycymer has become prevalent in English use.
The inscription shows the original usage of the building erected in 1939. M and CW Clinic was a Maternity and Child Welfare Clinic. Ogmore and Garw UDC was an Urban District Council formed in 1894. It ceased to exist on March 31st 1974, and was merged with the Urban Districts of Bridgend, Maesteg, Porthcawl (and Penybont Rural District) to form Ogwr (later Bridgend) Borough Council.
The area became part of Bridgend County Borough in 1996.
