Geocache Description:


Fifth in a series of caches around Mathern [Merthyr Tewdrig].

At the end of Snakey Lane and across from the local pub on the main road is a row of four model cottages dated 1891 with an eye catching water tank shelter, designed to look like a well, with an octagonal steep pitched tiled roof. The cottages are one and a half storeys, stone on the ground floor, with boldly projecting half-timbered gables. These are characteristic of the Domestic and Vernacular Revival styles which were favoured by model settlements large and small. It is presumed that these were built by the Vaughan-Hughes family (Wyelands) for their employees.

Please be aware that this is a busy 'muggle' area so please be very discreet and replace carefully.
