    • 2008, Eddie Wainwright, Poetry in Our Time: The Poet, Publisher, Reader, and Reviewer:

    • 1955 July, D. S. Barrie, “Railways of the Bridgend District”, in Railway Magazine, page 449:
      All three parallel valleys of the Llynvi, Garw and Ogmore are much the same in physical character: the lower reaches are wooded and not unattractive, but as the railway climbs on ever-steepening grades, the hills on either hand grow barer and closer together, while in all respects the scene becomes more sombre, with the terraced, slate-roofed colliery towns and the road, railway and river all struggling for space in the narrowing defiles.
