Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Ogmore Valley Federation Stone Originally, the stone served as a meeting place for miners' leaders and politicians on the Aber mountain at a time when political meetings were not permitted at individual collieries.

The inscription on the main plaque reads:

THIS IS THE FAMOUS OGMORE VALLEY FEDERATION STONE IT WAS REMOVED FROM THE ABER MOUNTAIN AND PLACED HERE AS A MEMORIAL TO THE MEN WHO DEVOTED AND THOSE WHO GAVE THEIR LIVES TO THE COAL MINING INDUSTRY OF THIS VALLEY. MAY 1990

“THE LORD KNOWETH THE DAYS OF THE PERFECT AND THEIR INHERITANCE SHALL BE FOREVER.” Psalm 37:18

EITHWYN HEIBIO YMA.

The smaller plaque records that stones for the wall were donated by members of Dinam Chapel at Nant-y-moel and were erected by John Lloyd Davies.
