The Lost Communities of
Merthyr Tydfil:
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 5
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
who 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. Please call Michelle Lewis on
01685 723112 or email
museum@merthyr.gov.uk
