Glynneath is a typical small Welsh valley town,
located in the Vale of Neath at the edge of the Brecon Beacons National
Park. It has a rich heritage of industrial and community values,
having been home to the coal industry during the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries. Its location is central and is conveniently
served for the whole of the South Wales area.
Glynneath has a population of over four thousand
people, and is democratically administered by two tiers of local
government. Two electoral divisions of Neath Port Talbot County
Borough Council include parts of the town, and a dedicated Town
Council also has responsibility for the whole of the community.
Glynneath has a wide spectrum of groups, organisations
and clubs to cater for all individuals. Central and key icons of
the town include the Welfare Park, the Vale of Neath Leisure Centre,
a beautiful cemetery and the Town Hall.
