In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Manmoel like this:
MAMHOLIE, or MANMOEL, a hamlet in Bedwelty parish, Monmouth; between the Ebbw and the Sirhowy rivers and railways, 2½ miles NE by N of Bedwelty, and 7 WNW of Pontypool. It contains Georgetown and Brieryhill, where there are extensive iron-works; and includes much of the chapelry of Tredegar-St. ...
George. Real property, £53,636; of which £8,500 are in mines, and £30,000 in iron-works. Pop. in 1851,9,120; in 1861,11,510. Houses, 2,025. The increase of pop. arose from the extension of the iron-works. The Bedwelty workhouse is here: and, at the census of 1861, had 98 inmates.
