Thanks for pointing out all these anomalies Alan. It looks like a gremlin got in the works during the last upload. I will inform colleagues and see if we cannot get this sorted.



Best wishes,

Photo of Brynmawr which has been attributed to Ebbw Vale. All the evidence is that this image is of Brynmawr.

The GKN Dowlais works might just be in this image which mainly feature Morlais Hill Near Dowlais. The map reference given is about 24 miles away in Cardiff which is a clear error.

The community in the middle distance is Edwardsville which is in the Merthyr Tydfil administrative area.

Totally wrong location info for: this (SAW046473), and SAW046474 and SAW046475 Their description 'Aberdeen...Works...' fits the picture, but not location "Aberfoyle". They're in the same flight AFL2160 as other which have a correct location e.g. SAW046468. Don't know where the Aberfoyle info came from.
