GLYNCONNON (GLYN-CYNON), a hamlet, in the parish of LLANWONNO, hundred of MISKIN, county of GLAMORGAN, SOUTH WALES, 71
miles (S.) from Merthyr -Tydvil, containing 415 inhabitants. The Pont Cynon aqueduct, which conveys the Cardiff canal
over the river Tif, is situated at the eastern extremity of this hamlet, near where the Aberdare canal joins the former at
Navigation House; and here also both the canal and the Tif are crossed by the road from Cardiff to Aberdare, which
proceeds through the vale of the Cynon, overhung in many places with majestic oaks, and other lofty trees, and which,
after crossing the river by an alpine bridge, enters the parish of Aberdare. There are numerous pleasing and ornamental
residences in different places, especially in that portion of the hamlet which overlooks the valleys of the Tif and the
Cynon, the former bounding it on the east, and the latter on the north-east.
