During the times of Irish deprivation around the time of the great potato famine circa 1740 many Irish families crossed to the UK mainland to the nearest points Pembroke and Holyhead in particular. Many made their way to The Welsh Vallies to work in the coal mines that fed the Iron works in Merthyr Tydfil (Dowlais Iron Works) and to work at the docks in Cardiff and Swansea. Cardiff was the main transition area for coal, steel and iron leaving the industrial areas of South Wales.
