  • Rural Ramble Richard Burton Trail
    RURAL RAMBLE RICHARD BURTON TRAIL The Legendary Richard Burton The Richard Burton Trail opened in 2011 commemorating the great Welsh actor and film star (1925-1984). Richard, son of a miner, was born in Pontrhydyfen and grew up in Taibach, Port Talbot; he took part in drama productions with the local YMCA then moved to London to become a great Shakespearean actor and finally a world famous Hollywood film star. Pontrhydyfen has a fascinating transport history Owing to its topography, threading transport routes through the area was very difficult, hence the numerous viaducts. Three of these carried railway lines linking the area’s collieries to Port Talbot. The Port Talbot Railway (PTR) from Tonmawr crossed the river on a 10-arched red brick (extant) viaduct; the Rhondda & Swansea Bay (R&SBR) from the Rhondda Valley crossed twice further up on single span viaducts. The other (extant) viaduct, originally an aqueduct, carried a water supply across the valley to serve local ironworks. The Route in detail From the Oakwood bus stop, walk down the hill, cross the river with the aqueduct (left) then turn right on a minor road leading to Rhyslyn car park (GR 796842). Rhyslyn is the site of the former R&SBR Pontrhydyfen station and note earthworks (right) where the platform was situated. Going east, there were two railways, the R&SBR which crossed the river on a high single span viaduct (now replaced by a footbridge), the other a spur route constructed but never used to link with the South Wales Mineral Railway. Head west from Rhyslyn and after 200 metres, bear right, take the higher road, turn left over the aqueduct to Oakwood, turn right down steps and along Penhydd Street, pass the school (right) before dropping down to the Trail and over the impressive red brick viaduct.
