Maesycwmmer (Welsh: Maesycwmer) is a village and community in the centre of Caerphilly County Borough in Wales, within the historic boundaries of Monmouthshire.
Maesycwmmer is located 5 miles (8 km) north of Caerphilly, on the east bank of the Rhymney River, opposite Hengoed, which is within the historic boundaries of Glamorgan.
Today the village features the "Wheel o Drams" (locally known as "The Stargate") sculpture by Andy Hazell, an unusual piece of modern art formed from a circle of coalmining dram trucks to commemorate the industrial heritage of this locality within the history of the South Wales Valleys.
The senior team, Maesycwmmer FC, was founded in 2010 and plays in the North Gwent Football League.
Roberts finished filming locally in August 2014 for the movie Just Jim, which is inspired by his early life in Maesycwmmer and was released in 2015.
