Boarded-up building, Castle Street, Maesteg
There was nothing remaining on the exterior of this boarded-up small building to indicate its former use. One map shows "Talgarth Bakeries". If that is correct, the current Talgarth Bakery http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2698689 in Maesteg is certainly a huge contrast!

Loading Coal
Clearing the stockpile of coal from the old mine. By this time most of the mine buildings had gone and there was a stockpile of coal to shift out. Note the sheep running loose off the hills.

A relic of Mid Glamorgan Water Board, Nantyffyllon
Viewed across the A4063. The building on the bank of the River Llynfi is now part of a Welsh Water pumping station. On its wall are the blue initials M.G.W.B, the abbreviation of Mid Glamorgan Water Board, a public sector undertaking that in 1973 became part of the Welsh National Water Development Authority (later known as the Welsh Water Authority, which was privatised in 1974 to become Welsh Water).

Coal dram alongside the Nantyffyllon boundary
Located on the west side of the A4063, at the Maesteg/Nantyffyllon boundary.
A plaque on the dram records that it was found on the hillside above Coegnant Colliery (open 1882-1981) by members of the community in Nantyffyllon.
Dram is a variant spelling of tram, a truck used in mines.
