Miners' Hall, Merthyr Tydfil
As I was taking the photo, a passer-by expressed in strong terms her disgust at a) the unsightliness of the ruin and b) the misspelling of the street name in front of it, Heol-yr-Reglwys instead of Heol-yr-Eglwys (Church St, for non-Welsh speakers).

Old Town Hall, Merthyr Tydfil
Cadw records that the building is dated May 1896 on a foundation stone. Although Merthyr was for a time the largest town in Wales (its population was two and a half times that of Cardiff in 1851), it did not attain formal urban status until 1894, when an urban district council was established. The town hall is an immediate expression of that status, and quickly became the focal point for civic and political life in the town.
It became customary for the results of parliamentary elections to be announced from its steps, and it was here in 1900 that the victory of J. Keir Hardie as the first Labour Member of Parliament in Britain is said to have been announced. His increased majority in the subsequent elections of 1906 and 1910 was announced from the balcony. The building was Grade II (star) listed in 1975.
