I used to love going to the Museum when I was young. I grew up in Merthyr and worked at Teddingtons in Cefn until I emigrated to Canada in 1968. I really enjoyed this video which brought back many good memories. Regards, Alan Owen

And a popular "perhaps not a myth," from the 1950's when I heard it, and probably much earlier. Whatever the motivation for "God Forgive Me" on the tombstone it was said that the words "Too Late You Old Bastard" were added shortly afterwards in paint! And a common insult in Cefn: "Oh, one of Crawshay's grandchildren are you!"

Fascinating and absolutely brilliant. Loved your presentation, my mother went to school at Cyfarthfa and I've spent hours tonight finding out a bit more about it. Thoroughly enjoyed this. It must be quite frustrating to constantly have to listen to misinformed people spouting a load of nonsense on matters you have studied for so many years! I feel your pain😆

Re: Pandy Clock "myth". Possibly you may have the myth ass-backwards? When I attended Cyfarthfa in the 1960's it was commonly thought that the clock tower with the three faces was financed by the workers. It was built with three faces so as to exclude the Crawshays - i.e. No face toward Cyfarthfa Castle. This was also the belief of my father who also attended Cyfarthfa in the mid 1920's. Makes more sense? agree?
