Ferndale
Ferndale is a small town located in the Rhondda Valley in the county district of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. Neighbouring towns are Blaenllechau, Maerdy and Tylorstown. Ferndale was industrialised in the mid-19th century. The initial coal mine shaft was sunk in 1857 and was the very first neighborhood to be intensively industrialised in the Rhondda Valley. In Welsh, Ferndale is referred to as Glynrhedynog, the name of among the old farms on which the town is built. In its infancy Glynrhedynog was also called Trerhondda after the name of the initial large chapel to be integrated in the community. The identifying of negotiations after chapels was widespread in Wales at the time, as is shown in village names such as Bethesda, Beulah and also Horeb, however neither Glynrhedynog neither Trerhondda was destined to be used for long. Glynrhedynog is made from the words "glyn" meaning valley and also "rhedynog" suggesting ferny, and so coal from the Glynrhedynog pits was marketed as Ferndale coal, a a lot easier name for English purchasers to absorb. The Ferndale pits are what drew the labor force as well as their family members to the location, and by the 1880s "Ferndale" was well developed as a growing community. With the phasing in of multilingual road indications from the late 1980s onwards, the name Glynrhedynog gradually re-emerged and also is now the officially assigned Welsh language name for Ferndale. The Welsh language gets on the increase in Ferndale after the town adopted the English language throughout the Industrial revolution. A Welsh language school is positioned near the park as well as the college is called after the park's lake, 'Llyn-y-Forwyn.' (The Maiden's Lake).
