Maesteg is the main settlement in the Llynfi Valley, located about 7 miles NW of Junction 36 of the M4 motorway. Maesteg, with its adjoining communities has a population of about 25,000. All of the mines were closed by the mid 1980's creating a major hole in the economic and social life of the area. Now mainly residential with some local industries such as light engineering and cosmetics. The Town Center is actually only made up of two long streets of shops, banks and other outlets. The Town itself though is composed of several villages from the beautiful historical hamlet of Llangynwyd to the estates of Blaencaerau. There's lots to do in the area -Llangynwyd has the oldest pub in Wales, called "The Old House", in a lovely tranquil setting shadowed by a Norman Church and green Fields. Another pub - the "Corner House" sits next door to it. Sports facilities are very good. The swimming complex was improved a few years ago to allow a health suite to be added to the 25m swimming pool and children's pool. The sports center, on a separate site has a large hall, multi-gym, squash courts and more. Then of course there is the Rugby Team Maesteg RFC which is the reason for this Homepage. Tables and stats can be found on other pages. I will attempt to update the site on a weekly basis so as to keep you all up with results and position of the club.
