Mining disaster memorial at Abercarn
In September 1878 an underground explosion at the Prince of Wales Colliery, Abercarn killed some 272 men and boys. It is the third biggest loss of life in mining accidents in Wales. So large that both faces of this memorial stone are covered with the names of those lost. Every household locally would have been affected, some with two or even three generations of men wiped out.
