Mine, what mine?
A reminder of South Wales's once great industrial past. Coal mines such as this were once found all over. Now there are no deep mines at all in South Wales. This location has been razed to the ground and the railway removed. Dr Steve Dumpleton, who was mine geologist here from 1982-1986, has confirmed that this is Abernant Colliery. The movement of coal by rail ceased not long after the picture was taken. Owing to the changes since I photographed this view my positions may not be exact, so any suggestions for a more precise location are welcome.
