Croeso i Treharris
Located at the edge of a hairpin bend. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3915092
The metal plate showing Croeso i Treharris (Welsh for Welcome to Treharris) is above a Treharris information board in English. Among the many facts on display, I learnt that the pre-industrial name for this area was Twyn y Garreg (rock or stone hillock). The town was formed in the 1870s around the Deep Navigation Colliery, owned by F.W.Harris. The colliery's original name was Harris's Navigation Pits. Treharris is literally Harris's Town.

Masonry remains of a railway bridge in Treharris
Viewed across the A4054 Cardiff Road near Susannah Place. Old maps show that this was part of the railway route between Quakers Yard High Level station and Treharris station. The route closed in 1964 and both stations have gone. The present-day Quakers Yard station http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3904668 is a smaller version of the original Quakers Yard Low Level station.
