Glogue is a hamlet and post town, north of Llanfyrnach, in the community of Crymych in the east of the county of Pembrokeshire, Wales. It was the site of slate quarrying from the 18th century; the industry employed over 80 men when the railway came to the area in the 19th century and improved distribution. Quarrying ended in 1926 and the railway closed in 1962. Glogue Farm is just north of the settlement, in Clydau community. ==Glogue Quarry== Glogue quarry was a slate quarry in Glogue. Worked from the late 1700s, by the mid-1800s it was owned by John Owen,〔 who wanted to make higher profits by improving his distribution. This led to the construction of the Whitland and Cardigan Railway. The advent of the railway lead to Owen expanding his workforce to over 80 men. After sale to a local consortium, the quarry was worked until 1926. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Glogue」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
