Merthyr Tydfil is a town of approximately 55,000 inhabitants in the county of Glamorgan, in South Wales.
The region around Merthyr Tydfil has been inhabited since the Bronze age, over 2000 years ago. Since then, the region has been inhabited by the Celts, Romans and later the Normans.
The town name of Merthyr Tydfil is alleged to have come from the name of a girl, Tydfil, daughter of a local Chieftain, who was martyred after converting to Christianity. She was pursued by Saxons and Picts. Tydfil was buried in 480CE, and this is the date traditionally associated with the foundation of Merthyr Tydfil.
During the Industrial Revolution, the town boomed as a reuslt of its proximity to raw materials - coal, iron ore, limestone and water were all nearby, and in sufficient quantities to make Merthry Tydfil an idea site for ironworks. The opening of several ironworks caused Merthyr Tydfil to expand rapidly from a hamlet of 700 people, to a bustling industrial town of over 80,000. At their peak, 50,000 tons of rails left one ironworks in 1844, to expand the railways in Russia to Siberia. Another company employed 17,500 workers and operated 18 blast furnaces, and later built the worlds largest rolling mill.
The fortune of Merthyr Tydfil declined after World War I, with almost all of its ironworks closing. The last foundry closed in 1987, marking the end of 257 years of continuous production on the site.
In World War II, the towns forutunes were revived slightly as war-related industries sprung up, and a number of refugees from Europe settled in the town. After the war, a number of factories set up in the town, including Hoover and Teddington Aviation controls, though the latter closed in the 1970's.
Nearby towns include Ebbw Vale, Rhymney and Aberdare.
