On the hills above Merthyr Tydfil, Miller Argent is undertaking a highly ambitious land reclamation scheme that is also involving the extraction of coal by surface mining methods. Known as the \\’Ffos-y-fran Land Reclamation Scheme\\’, this is the third and final phase of the East Merthyr Reclamation Scheme which is expected to run for approximately 17 years. The reclamation works will include the removal of known shafts and adits all previously associated with the historic iron ore and coal workings that present a danger to humans, livestock and wild animals.
