GUEST,Dr Price Lynne H & Pat T - Llanrisant & The Tump (22) RE: Lynne H & Pat T - Llanrisant & The Tump 26 Jul 06


Just out of interest in the mis-spelled subject (Sorry, Lynne!): Llan-tri-sant is the parish of the three saints, the Breton saint Gwynno and the Welsh saints Dyfodwg and Illtyd. Dyfodwg and Illtyd left their names scattered around (i.e. the village of Llandyfodwg, and the coastal town of Llantwit Major and the inland village of Llantwit Fardre, which are both English corruptions: Llanilltyd Fawr, where the first college was set up, and Llanilltyd Faerdref.

Incidentally, Llantwit Fardre, which is about four miles from here, is the home of Gwynt y Ddraig, who produce several cracking ciders and marvellous perries - excellent stuff!
