The subject land is situated on the Maerdy/Abertysswg Road and the Rhymney River on the periphery of a built up area.

Abertysswg is a former mining community and lies approximately 7 miles to the East of Merthyr Tydfil and 27 miles North of Cardi , the capital city of Wales. The railway station provides an hourly service to Cardi city centre.
