Going, going… soon to be gone. Maerdy Workmen’s Hall
Posted on October 17th, 2008 filed in History, Rhondda, Rhondda Cynon Taff
Rhondda Cynon Taf Council confirmed today that demolition of Maerdy Workingmen’s Hall will begin soon.
Built in 1905, the grand old building was an iconic symbol of Rhondda’s wealth based on the coalmining industry.
The local Council plan to recycle as much of the remains of the building as possible.
Several local organisations have already expressed an interest in reusing the old stone from the venue as soon as it is razed to the ground.

In late February 2008, the last standing walls of the building came down after many weeks of dismantling and demolition.
