Archibald Hood statue, Llwynypia
Located in a viewing and seating area several metres above the west side of Llwynypia Road. Archibald Hood (1823-1902) was a Scottish mining engineer and entrepreneur. In 1862 Hood began operations in the Welsh coalfields, establishing the Glamorgan Coal Company, modernising and extending old pits and opening new ones. The colliery occupied an area from the Powerhouse, north of Tonypandy, to the Hay Stores in Llwynypia.
Archibald Hood’s concern and care for his workers was legendary. The inscription on the base of the statue is
ARCHIBALD HOOD
COAL OWNER
THIS STATUE IS ERECTED
BY HIS WORKMEN AND FRIENDS
AS A TOKEN OF RESPECT
TO HIS MEMORY
1906.
