Coach Party, Aberavon Bay

The Miners’ Fortnight took place across the last week of July and the first week of August when the coal mines were closed for annual maintenance. Miners, their families and whole communities from the south Wales valleys flocked to resorts such as Barry and Porthcawl to enjoy a well-earned holiday.
