Upper Cwmtwrch : ウィキペディア英語版
Cwmtwrch
Cwmtwrch is a village in the valley of the Afon Twrch, a right-bank tributary to the Swansea Valley, Wales, some 15 miles north of Swansea.

== History and origins ==
The name Cwmtwrch (Welsh language: 'Valley of the Wild Boar') derives from the “Twrch Trwyth”, a mythical wild boar of King Arthur’s legends and the ancient Welsh folklore tales of the Mabinogion in early Welsh literature. The legend relates to one of Arthur’s tasks: to rid the western Brecon Beacons of the pack of wild boars that were terrorizing the people. Arthur chased the boars from Dyfed eastward towards Powys. On the Black Mountain, he picked up a large stone (the ''carreg fryn fras'') and cast it towards the wild animals, striking dead the leader of the pack on the edge of a valley near Craig-y-Fran Gorge. The big boar's body rolled down the valley and into the river which is now the Afon Twrch. The big stone is still on the mountain.
Cwmtwrch has been split into two parts, Upper Cwmtwrch (''Cwm Twrch Uchaf'') and Lower Cwmtwrch (''Cwm Twrch Isaf''), due to the traversing of the now defunct railway line and road at two points requiring an upper and lower gate. The Upper and Lower tag is something that is the subject of humorous comment given the village's size and population.
The village lies in three counties Powys, Carmarthenshire and Neath Port Talbot. The George IV Inn is built where the three counties meet, and this made it interesting in the past, due to different licensing hours between counties.
Nearby is the town of Ystradgynlais and villages of Ystradowen, Rhiwfawr and Ystalyfera.
