map-Merthyr on the coast??

Hello!
Don't know if this has been covered before ( I'm new here ) but on the map of the UK they have the town of Merthyr on the coast! That town is miles inland. Maybe what should be there is either Swansea, Barry or Cardiff ( coastal towns with ports ).
Hopefully I'm not the first one to spot this error!

Not the only one, trust me, I'm from Swansea

Should be swansea really. Was the biggest port in the area at the time. Merthyr should be 30 miles north

It wasn't until the 1.3 patch that they put Liverpool and the Firth of Clyde in the correct position.

Ah, a Swansea jack!

Wondered why you said it should be Swansea and not Cardiff!

Just jesting!

I think swansea was a busier port than cardiff at the time anyway, but you're right, cardiff sucks :p
