After 18 months Miskin Mill Scout Hutt will be re-opening for campers and residential visitors from today [1 September 2021].

The Pontyclun site had been closed during the pandemic, and contractors carried out major work funded by grants.

The service team has put in a new roadway to the footbridge, and replaced the southern fence to the wood.

Contractors have rewired all the electrics in the Mill, toilet block and Cottage and upgraded those in the lodge.

There is a new tiled floor to the main room in the Mill and flood barriers (in place over winter) to the lower doors of the Mill after Storm Dennis.

The chimneys in the Mill and Cottage have been rebuilt due to leaks.

As per ScoutsCymru/Welsh Government rules residential groups (for the time being) must not exceed 30 and only six young people are allowed per room/tent and only one adult unless from the same bubble.
