About Abercanaid

  • Abercanaid sits in the shadow of the Cyfarthfa ironworks, which was established by the Crawshay family in the late eighteenth century and grew to become one of the largest ironworks in the world. The Crawshays' Cyfarthfa Castle, built in 1825 as a Gothic Revival mansion overlooking the ironworks, is now a museum and art gallery, and the surrounding parkland is one of the most popular open spaces in Merthyr Tydfil. The Taff Trail, the long-distance cycling and walking route that follows the River Taff from Cardiff Bay to the Brecon Beacons, passes through Abercanaid on its way north through the valley.
