Biographical/Historical note

The Trevil Rail Road was constructed in 1793 to carry limestone from the Trefil Quarries to the ironworks at Beaufort and Ebbw Vale. The quarries continued to supply the Ebbw Vale works throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. In 1908, the rail road was converted into a narrow-gauge railway.
