Rhoscrowther - the Welsh ghost village

Rhoscrowther - the Welsh ghost village (Google Maps)
No Thumbnail
Rhoscrowther is a small Welsh village which has slowly been swallowed up by the growth of the Texaco Oil Refinery. After a fairly major explosion in the early 1990's, Texaco began to offer a relocation package to the Rhoscrowther residents and move them to a safer location. Many took this up and the village has now become a ghost village. All that remains are a couple of residents, the church and the community hall.
