EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the bustling scene at Cambrian Colliery in Clydach Vale, Tonypandy, near Porth, Glamorgan, Wales, in the year 1905. The coal mine, which was not part of the Cambrian Colliery Company, was a significant employer in the region and contributed greatly to the local economy. The image shows a busy coal face, with miners in their distinctive headgear and clothing, working diligently to extract the valuable resource from the earth. The use of horses for transporting coal carts adds to the sense of industry and hard labor. The steam engine, a testament to the technological advancements of the time, looms in the background, its puffs of smoke adding to the overall atmosphere of the scene. The colliery was located in a valley, surrounded by lush greenery and rolling hills, which provides a stark contrast to the industrial activity taking place below. The image also reveals the importance of community in the mining industry, with families and children gathered near the colliery gates, likely waiting for their loved ones to finish their shifts. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing valuable insights into the daily life and working conditions of coal miners during the early 20th century. It serves as a reminder of the crucial role that the coal industry played in the economic and social development of Wales and the United Kingdom as a whole.
