Posted: 05/09/2011 09:18:50 Reply | Quote I'm about to find myself in Port Talbot for a few days with work. No spare time really, but I noticed the "South Wales Miners Museum" is a few miles up the road. Can't make its opening hours due to work, but is the outdoor stuff accessable after the places shuts, or will I just get arrested ? IP: 82.5.179.238 |

I think there may be someone on site after hours, give the museum a ring. If you're into old tunnels Gyfylchi and Cymmer are close and Dinas Silica Mines are not too far away.
