St Theodore's Church in Cwmfelinfach was built in 1925 to serve the local mining community that worked at the Nine Mile Point Colliery.
Nine Mile Point Colliery was the site of the first ever 'sit in' of miners. During 1935 there was a "stay down strike" involving 164 colliers. They were protesting over the use of scab miners and their ordeal only ended after the company promised no non-federation men would be employed at the colliery, the stay-down strike lasted for 177 hours.
I had wondered why the church grounds boast two bowling greens, but, upon closer inspection I found out I was mistaken.
“If anybody would like to expand this series please do, I would just ask that you could let Sadexploration know first atchurchmicro@gmail.com so he can keep track of the Church numbers and names to avoid duplication.
There is also a Church Micro Stats & Information page found via the Bookmark list”
Congratulations to Sniffadogs for an early morning FTF
