Blaengwynfi, Western Colliery 1938 (ref: 88714)
Year: 1968 Afan Colliery
This is the old afan colliery in full swing until the late 60's early 70's. This picture was taken from the Bwlch Road looking over Jersey Road. The lone white building is the old vicarage.

Blaengwynfi, General View c1955 (ref: B42301)
Year: 1957 Home Base
This pic was taken from Tunnel Terrace looking over the old iron bridge coming from The Tunnel Hotel. The building closest after the slag heap is the old Police station with the Bandroom next door to it. My Grandmother and Grandfather Loveday lived in number 5 Tunnel Tce. Sadly no longer there.
