About

The area of Brynaman, Y Garnant and Glanaman lies within the upper Amman Valley, shaped by the River Amman. The landscape is defined by its industrial past, with former colliery sites and terraced housing built into the valley slopes. The surrounding hills of the Black Mountain provide a consistent backdrop to the north. The communities are closely linked, functioning as a continuous settlement along the valley floor with a focus on local amenities and services.

A notable local feature is Banwen Man, an ancient standing stone located on the hillside above Brynaman. The area's history is closely tied to the anthracite coal field, with the Cwmamman district council serving the three villages. Recreational spaces include Parc y Bont in Glanaman and the Garnant Golf Club, while the old railway line now forms part of a walking and cycling route through the valley.
