Brynmawr (sometimes hyphenated to Bryn-mawr in Welsh — meaning "big hill") is a market town in south Wales. The town, nestled at the head of the South Wales Valleys, grew during the arrival of the mining and iron industries in the early 1800s . It was originally a small village settlement called Gwaen Helygen. With the expansion of the Nantyglo (meaning stream of coal) Ironworks housing was required for the workers and Brynmawr turned into a prosperous town. Although coal mining has declined, a large mining museum is nearby. Today it has an estimated population of over 14,000 people, very few of whom speak Welsh.
