RhymneyRhymney is a small, former mining town in north-western Monmouthshire, at the head of the Upper Rhymney Valley, close by the borders of both Glamorgan and Brecknockshire. The town stands by the source of the River Rhymney (which river forms the Glamorgan border from source to sea) and is named from the river, as is a homophonous namesake, Rumney at the river's mouth. Rhymney is known to many as a result of the song "The Bells of Rhymney", a musical adaptation of a poem by Idris Davies. (Read more) |
