Ruins of Ystalyfera Iron Works
The ASDA construction that revealed the iron works visible in Image is now complete. The original stonework has been partially re-buried leaving the tops of the furnace arches visible. All of the low walls and passages that had been discovered are now completely buried. While some of the ruins are under the new landscaping some must be under the delivery yard.

Excavated Iron Works at Ystalyfera
Asda recently started preliminary work on this area adjacent to the site of a demolished factory. They started clearing this long overgrown coal tip but discovered the remnants of Ystalyfera Iron Works. In its distant heyday it was the largest iron works in the world at the time. No further progress has been made on the supermarket and the historic site has now been fenced off. It seems that Asda have been forced to preserve the historic remains if they are to continue development.
