Village in Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales

Aberaman

Aberaman is a village near Aberdare in the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf, south Wales.

It was heavily dependent on the coal industry and the population, as a result, grew rapidly in the late nineteenth century. Most of the industry has now disappeared and a substantial proportion of the working population travel to work in Cardiff and the M4 corridor. Many residents also work in the nearby towns of Aberdare and Pontypridd.
