Penderyn is a rural village in Cynon Valley, Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales. It is located near Hirwaun, and for postal purposes it comes under the town of Aberdare in the Cynon Valley in the county of Rhondda Cynon Taf in Wales. It lies on the A4059 road between Hirwaun and Brecon and is the last settlement on that road in the county of Rhondda Cynon Taf before the border with Powys to the north. The village sits just within the southern boundary of the Brecon Beacons National Park. The River Cynon passes through the area. It is the home of Penderyn Whisky, produced by the Penderyn Distillery (formerly the Welsh Whisky Company (''Y Cwmni Wisgi Cymreig'')). The award winning〔http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/south_west/7475623.stm〕 single malt whisky is the only whisky distilled in Wales, launched in 2004 after an absence of whisky distilling in Wales for more than 100 years. Within the village, there are two chapels (Siloam Chapel and Soar Chapel) and one church (St Cynog's Church). == Etymology == Penderyn () contains two Welsh words: - ''Pen'', meaning Head (of) - and 'deryn',an abbreviation of "aderyn", Welsh for bird 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「Penderyn, Rhondda Cynon Taf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
