Help find missing Merthyr history

Cyfarthfa Castle Museum and Art Gallery are looking for help from the Merthyr Tydfil Community for their upcoming exhibition ‘The Lost Communities of Merthyr Tydfil’.

The exhibition will tell the stories of five Merthyr Tydfil communities that have all but disappeared from the map: The Triangle, Pantywaun, China, Caepantywyll and Pontygwaith.

Central to this exhibition are the stories and memories of the people who lived in these communities. The museum is looking for people who lived in, or are descendants of people who lived in these areas to get in touch with any information, stories, photographs or objects.

The exhibition will be held at Cyfarthfa Castle Museum from the 23rd June – 30th August 2010.
