I live very close to the former Pentremawr coal mine (Pontyberem,Carmarthenshire) and wonder if any one has any former site maps...or point me to where I can get hold of some....

All the buildings have been flattened and it would be great to know what was located where when I'm jogging on the former tarmac/concrete site roads....and to understand the local past history on my door step..!

Thanks

Ian

There are a few shafts and tips in the area, do you have a NGR or FlashEarth link for the location? IP: 86.23.34.240
