Brynsadler is a small village situated in Rhondda Cynon Taff, South Wales, in the UK. It is located just off Junction 34 of the M4 motorway.
[edit] Amenities
It has one pub, the Ivor Arms which for a brief period was named Y Draenog (Welsh language) 'The Hedgehog' but took back its original name in November 2007. It also has a small village shop and Post Office.
The main road to Cowbridge runs through the village, and is known locally as 'Brynsadler hill'. Brynsadler used to be home to the Crown Buckley brewery housed opposite the village pub. The brewery was bought by S A Brain and eventually relocated to Cardiff. The brewery and brewery houses were demolished and a housing estate called "Clos Brenin" replaced it.
Brynsadler also housed a chapel, called Capel Zion, located opposite the post office. It closed down and was converted into housing accommodation.
Given its position between Llanharry and Pontyclun, Brynsadler is a pit stop for many summer activities such as fun-runs. The brewery fields were donated to the village and are used for rugby union practice on weekends. The village is home to large, small and home businesses.
