Maendy Quarry is an abandoned stone quarry near Cardiff in South Wales that was subsequently used in the 1960s as a landfill site for industrial waste. The site became infamous in the early 1970s when it became clear that toxic industrial waste had been deposited at the site, which included PCBs from Monsanto Newport factory now owned by Eastman. In addition, local farmers had been paid compensation for the death of animals that had been grazing near the site. The company using this disposal site also used the nearby Brofiscin Quarry. The Brofiscin site is the main touchpoint when discussing the pollutants that ended up in these quarries.
