If you're interested in your local history, one of my go-to websites is the National Library of Scotland maps archives. They've got lots of old Ordnance Survey maps dating back to late 1800s available to view - and a really handy side-by-side tool so you can see current maps next to the old OS maps. For an area like this (Merthyr) it's absolutely fascinating to see the changes - in the late 1800s it's just a mass of railway lines servicing the iron works https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16.0&lat=51.73727&lon=-3.37173&layers=6&right=osm
