Flood defence wall (2), Trehafod
There were damaging floods from the River Rhondda in Trehafod on several occasions in the twentieth century. The most serious and widespread flood was in 1960, when one man died.
In the late 1990s, a flood defence wall was built along the north bank of the Rhondda in Trehafod. This section is along Lewis Street, viewed from the corner of Bethesda Street.

LLANWONNO
SCHOOL BOARD
HAFOD SCHOOLS
I was surprised that Llanwonno (also spelt Llanwynno) once had a school board, as it is a tiny hamlet Image consisting of one church and one pub, (and no houses!) in St Gwynno Forest. The explanation is that the ancient parish of Llanwonno was centred at the church, but covered a wide area of the Rhondda, including Porth, Abercynon and parts of Mountain Ash and Pontypridd.
