Resolven's Mining Legacy


On the front wall of the Resolven Community Center is a slate plaque dedicated to those who have been killed in mining accidents.

The first entry is from 1852 and the last from 1988.

Cymdeithas Hanes Resolfen History Society

Croeso!

What better way to start off an exciting new internet project for the Cymdeithas Hanes Resolfen History Society than to look at a BBC article on the society itself.

This article is published on the BBC website [click here to see it] and exists thanks to Trefor who is the Secretary.

This weblog will be used as a forum to publish articles and links to local historical resources, and to prompt discussion amongst anyone who has an interest in the village.

Over the coming weeks new posts will be added to show you how you can get involved and contribute to the project.
