Merthyr Tydfil Town in Wales

Merthyr Tydfil is the main town in Merthyr Tydfil County Borough and administered by Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council. It is about 23 miles (37 km) north of Cardiff, Wales. Often called just Merthyr, it is said to be named after Tydfil, daughter of King Brychan of Brycheiniog. According to legend, she was slain at Merthyr by pagans about 480 CE and the place was later named in her honour. Merthyr generally means "martyr" in modern Welsh, but here it is closer to the Latin martyrium: a place of worship built over a martyr's relics. Similar cases in south Wales are Merthyr Cynog, Merthyr Dyfan and Merthyr Mawr.
