About

Glyn and Pontyberem sit in the Gwendraeth Valley in Carmarthenshire, close to the River Gwendraeth Fach. The landscape is shaped by former coal workings and a network of minor roads and footpaths that link farms, hedgerows and terraces of houses. The old trackbed of the Burry Port and Gwendraeth Valley Railway runs near the village and can be followed on foot along parts of the valley, passing former pit sites and embankments that record the area’s industrial past.

Local life centres on community facilities and clubs. Pontyberem has a rugby club and social spaces that serve surrounding hamlets, while Glyn lies a short distance away within the same parish landscape. Pubs, a community hall and village stores provide daily services, and the valley’s field pattern supports mixed farming. Annual community events and remnants of miners’ cottages and spoil tips keep the connection to 19th- and 20th-century industry visible alongside ongoing rural activities.
