Welsh former coal-mining valley (7)

I believe the answer is:

rhondda

(Other definitions for rhondda that I've seen before include "Welsh valley, mined once" , "Former coal-mining centre in South Wales" , "mining region" , "Welsh constituency" , "Welsh area renowned for coal mining" .)

I've seen this clue in The Sun.
