Joseph Parry's Cottage, Chapel Row, Merthyr Tydfil
One of a row http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4620639 of houses built in the 1820s for the workers of Cyfarthfa Ironworks, this cottage was the birthplace in 1841 of Joseph Parry, Wales's best-known composer. His much loved song Myfanwy remains a favourite of Welsh Male Voice Choirs. The interior of the cottage is set in the 1840s, showing the living conditions of the ironworkers at the time when Parry was a young boy. The upstairs galleries house an exhibition about Parry's life and work, and a small section giving information about Merthyr Tydfil's industrial past.
