Straddling the border of Bridgend County and Rhondda Cynon Taf is a community with a rich history of harnessing energy.
Back as far as the late 19th Century, Gilfach Goch and Evanstown - like much of the Welsh valleys - was known as a mining community.
The Gilfach Goch Coillery employed boys and men through the village. Though the work was difficult and dangerous, residents recall a sense of pride in their past.
