Plaque commemorating Emlyn Williams in Rhydymain
Emlyn Williams wrote and directed the Last Days of Dolwyn in 1949 and it says on the plaque this was filmed in Rhydymain.
This tale of an English water company flooding a Welsh village for a reservoir is notable for Richard Burton's film debut. At times, you can't take your eyes off him, writes Graeme Hobbs.

Part of the old core of Rhydymain
The core of the village was used in 1949 as the location for the film 'Last Days of Dolwyn' in which the young Richard Burton had his first major film role. The film which also starred Dame Edith Evans and Emlyn Williams was also directed by Williams. A plaque on the side of the house nearest the camera commemorates the event.
