In 1990 the tramroad bridge supports were photographed on the Aberkenfig to Cefn Cribwr road.
The route of the tramway incline photographed in 1990. Looking north from Cribwr Farm towards Parc Slip. The Parc Slip colliery and brickworks would have been in the middle distance just at the edge of the field.

The last remanants of the clay workings photographed in 1990 during a land fill operation. This feature has now been obliterated.
