Perthcelyn[1] is a village and district of the community between Penrhiwceiber and Mountain Ash within the Cynon Valley in the county borough of Rhondda Cynon Taf, Wales.

Affectionately known as the Lost City, Perthcelyn is literally the top of the valley with stunning views of the Lower Cynon Valley.

It offers great walks and rural paths leading to the Cwm and Ynysbwl.

Perthcelyn has two local shops, A fantastic School which opened in 1999, and replaced the old primary school, which is now a Communities First office, There is also a Community center which is very active and opened in 1976.

Employment within the village comes mainly from Priory Healthcare who have a nursing home there. Initially Owned by Rosenberg and then Creagmoor, the nursing home known as the Willows was in 1992 built on the site on Perthcelyn's former public house the Mount View hotel (known local as Orbaries)

The Post Office was closed in the early part of the 2000s.

Perthcelyn also boasts one of the Valleys most successful football clubs since 1999.

During the early part of the Millennium, Dean Gore took the Perthcelyn United Youth teams, and won several trophies throughout the Aberdare Valley Football League, Then in 2009 Dean along with new manager and former semi-pro Footballer Anthony Jenkins embarked on winning countless trophies with a Senior Mens team and the club reached the South Wales Amateur League in 2011 and they won that title too to take them one step away from Welsh League Football.

Unfortunately, lack of resources and player commitment meant the club had to drop out of the league and they were re-branded AFC Perthcelyn were formed. Perthcelyn has continued to win trophies under Mark Anthony including a local league treble in 2014 and has competed in Cup finals in 2016 and 2017 all in the Aberdare Valley League.

This season, 2017-18, the club changed to Sunday league in TERV for a variety of reasons

But a return to Saturday Football is set for 2018-19.
