Penrhiwceiber
Penrhiwceiber is a small Welsh former coal mining village and community in the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf that lies 1 mile south of the town Aberpennar and is one of many villages in the Cwm Cynon, Wales. The village was once a highly Welsh-speaking area until around early/mid 20th century. Penrhiwceiber is home to ''Cylch Meithrin Penrhiwceiber'' which is a Welsh language pre-school for local children. Penrhiwceiber is generally known as "Ceiber" to the locals. To the east of the village lies Mynydd Twyn Brynbychan which is around 1,500 ft above sea level, the village is one of the steepest in Wales, and possibly the United Kingdom.
==Etymology==
Penrhiwceiber if from "Pen-y-rhiw-ceibr" which is the Welsh for (“(the) top/end (of) the hill/slope/rise (of) the joist/beam/rafter”). The reason for this name is because there once was an avenue of trees on Ffordd Llanwynno. This reflects the early character of the district, which up until the last twenty years of the 19th century was a heavily wooded area with steep sloping mountainsides being covered by Penrhiwceiber Woods (Welsh: Coedwigoedd Penrhiwceibr). However the woodland nature of the district was to change with the arrival of the coal industry as the woods were felled and a colliery and terraces of houses took their place.
