Ceredigion 2012

Ceredigion

Introduction roeso - a warm Welsh welcome - awaits you in Ceredigion. Originally an independent principality established as long ago as 415 AD, the area is named after Prince Ceredig (pronounced “care-eh-dig”). Located on the western coastline of Wales, on the shores of the bay that carries its name, Ceredigion is sheltered from the east by the Plynlimon mountain range. Spectacular landscapes and welcoming people await your visit to Ceredigion, one of the last bastions of the Welsh language and culture.

C

In Ceredigion you will experience a refreshing atmosphere and leisurely, but purposeful, lifestyle that is a far cry from the often hectic stresses of everyday urban living. Winding down is easy - if that is what you want - but there are opportunities galore to join in the ‘hwyl’ (fun) of walking spectacular paths, sailing, surfing, challenging angling, sea fishing, marvellous birdwatching, pony trekking, golf, world class mountain biking and scenic cycle routes.

Countryside

Cefn Gwlad

eredigion’s countryside features some of Wales’s most beautiful landscapes - mountains, lakes, forests and rivers. Many routes inland follow a “cwm” or river valley, each with its own charm and spectacular scenery.

C

ng Ngheredigion cewch rai o olygfeydd cefn gwlad harddaf Cymru, afonydd, mynyddoedd, llynnoedd a choedwigoedd, dyffrynnoedd tawel diarffordd ac erwau maith o fawndir uchel sy’n lloches i greaduriaid prin tebyg i’r barcud.

The AA has described the B4574 through Cwmystwyth as one of “the Ten Most Scenic Drives in the World”. Nearing Pontrhydygroes, woodland marks the 18th century Hafod estate of Thomas Johnes. Wonderful walks and artefacts in the nearby church remind us of an estate that once attracted Europe’s glitterati. In Cwmystwyth and Cwmrheidol miners extracted silver for a Royal Mint at Aberystwyth and lead, as Llywernog’s Silver-Lead Mine Museum explains.

Nid rhyfedd felly i’r AA ddisgrifio ffordd y B4574 am Aberystwyth trwy Gwmystwyth fel un o’r deg ffordd harddaf yn y byd. Ar hyd y ffordd hon, ac yng Nghwmrheidol, cewch olion yr hen weithfeydd arian a phlwm a fu gynt yn cynnal gweithwyr o bell ac agos fel tystia’r arddangosfeydd yn Amgueddfa Mwyngloddio Arian a Phlwm Llywernog.

A narrow gauge steam railway climbs through marvellous walking country in Cwmrheidol linking Aberystwyth with Devil’s Bridge. A linear path links Borth with Devil’s Bridge via the Nant yr Arian Visitor Centre. Spectacular circular walks abound, with the path continuing from Devil’s Bridge to Pontrhydfendigaid.

The river Teifi stems from the mountains above Pontrhydfendigaid and in the valley below, Strata Florida Abbey was established by Cistercians in 1164. Skirting Cors Caron National Nature Reserve, home to rare species of flora and fauna, the road leads to Tregaron from where a spectacular drovers’ route climbs eastwards through Cwm Berwyn.

Passing Llanddewi Brefi, the Teifi proceeds to Lampeter - Wales’s oldest University town - before encountering rapids around Llandysul, a mecca for white-water canoeists. Below Cenarth’s scenic falls, Celtic coracles are still used. Nearby, you can enjoy a trip on the Teifi Valley Railway or visit water-driven mills. Nearing Cardigan and Teifi Estuary habitats accessible via the Welsh Wildlife Centre - the imposing ruins of Cilgerran Castle, painted by Turner, guard the Teifi’s seaward flow.

A linear path links Aberaeron with Lampeter and a cycleway from Aberaeron along the Aeron Valley reaches the National Trust’s Llanerchaeron Mansion, an 18th century Welsh gentry estate with spectacular walled gardens.

Beyond Felin-fach and Talsarn, Llangeitho is where legend says Handel’s Hallelujah Chorus was inspired by cries of “Hallelujah!” at 18th century revivalist meetings.

Profitez de la liberté de ses montagnes éloignées, ses rapides, ses forêts, ses lacs et ses cascades impressionnantes. Les prodigieux paysages du Ceredigion attirent les amoureux de la nature tout au long de l’année. C’est la patrie d’une grande variété de rares espèces botaniques et d’oiseaux comme le gracieux milan rouge.

Yr A r fo r d i r

ith the opening of the Ceredigion Coast Path, the beauty of Ceredigion’s magnificent coastline and the abundant wildlife of Cardigan Bay can now be fully appreciated.

ae arfordir Ceredigion yn arbennig. Mae ymhlith y prydferthaf yng Nghymru gyda llawer o’r trigain milltir wedi ei ddynodi’n Arfordir Treftadaeth a rhannau, megis Mwnt, Lochtyn, Cwmtydu a Phenbryn, yn eiddo i’r Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol tra bo’r traeth a’r twyni tywod yn Ynyslas o dan ofal Cyngor Cefn Gwlad Cymru.

M

For over 25 years, much of Ceredigion’s coastline has been designated Heritage Coast with particularly scenic sections, such as Mwnt, Lochtyn, Cwmtydu and Penbryn, cared for by the National Trust INTERNATIONAL and at the northern extreme, the Dyfi National Nature BLUE FLAG Reserve at Ynyslas offers spectacular sand dunes.

Cardigan Bay is an outstanding and internationally important area for marine wildlife. A Special Area of Conservation, it was the UK’s first Marine Heritage Coast, sheltering some of Britain’s rarest birds and marine species and home to a resident population of some 200 bottlenose dolphins as well as porpoise and grey seals. Boat trips offering marvellous opportunities to enjoy the bay’s wildlife are available, especially from New Quay and Cardigan.

Ceredigion’s magnificent beaches - ranging from secluded sandy coves to more traditional seaside resorts regularly win Seaside Awards, Green Coast Awards and coveted International Blue Flags - an assurance of quality.

The Ceredigion coastline is dotted with villages, small ports and harbour towns all with a rich seafaring history. Beyond the golden beaches of Aberporth, Tresaith and Llangrannog and the National Trust beaches at Mwnt and Penbryn, New Quay offers yet more sandy beaches, sailing and a watersports centre.

Aberaeron, with its charming stone-walled harbour, is popular with sailors and, further north, Aberystwyth has a purpose-built marina at the southern end of its scenic promenade. Regattas and sailing events feature annually on the calendar at Aberaeron, New Quay, Tresaith and the Teifi Estuary while Borth is establishing itself as a popular venue for surfing.

Dros 25 mlynedd yn ôl dynodwyd arfordir Ceredigion yn Arfordir Treftadaeth ac yna, yn Arfordir Treftadaeth Morol cyntaf Prydain. Yn ddiweddar, crëwyd safle morol Ewropeaidd gyda’r nod o ddiogelu’r amgylchedd arbennig hwn sydd yn gartref i deulu o 200 o ddolffiniaid trwynbwl ynghyd â llamhidyddion, morloi llwyd, adar, planhigion ac anifeiliaid morol prin. Cewch hefyd gyfle i gymryd mordaith o gwmpas y Bae mewn un o nifer o gychod sydd yn hwylio o’r Cei ac o Aberteifi.

Dilynwch Llwybr Arfordir Ceredigion pob cam o’r de i’r gogledd i werthfawrogi gwir hyfrydwch y Bae. Dros y blynyddoedd mae traethau bendigedig Ceredigion yn gilfannau tawel a threfi glan môr bywiog - wedi ennill gwobrau tebyg i’r Faner Las Ryngwladol, Gwobrau’r Arfordir Glas a Glan Môr fel cydnabyddiaeth o’u glendid a safon eu hadnoddau.

Mae arfordir Ceredigion yn frith o bentrefi a harbyrau, pob un â’i hanes a’i thraddodiadau morol. Yn ogystal â thraethau euraidd pentrefi’r Mwnt, Aberporth, Tresaith, Penbryn a Llangrannog, mae trefi a phentrefi glan môr traddodiadol fel y Borth, Aberystwyth a’r Cei Newydd yn cynnig hufen iâ ar y prom a thripiau o gwmpas y Bae. Gall hwylwyr sy’n ymweld â harbyrau Aberaeron a’r Cei Newydd a’r Lanfa, marina Aberystwyth, elwa o gyfleusterau heb eu hail. Denir hwylwyr i drefi a phentrefi’r Cei Newydd, Aberaeron, Tresaith a Gwbert bob haf ar gyfer eu regatas blynyddol ac mae pentref y Borth yn datblygu’n ganolfan boblogaidd ymysg syrffwyr.

Mae Gwˆyl y Môr i’r Tir a gynhelir yn Aberystwyth ym mis Awst yn ddathliad o’r cynnyrch a’r cyffro, a’r bobl sy’n bwy ac yn gweithio ar hyd arfordir Bae Ceredigion.

Ein großer Teil der wunderschönen Küste von Ceredigion wurde zur volkskundlichen Küste ernannt. Die warmen Gewässer der Cardigan Bucht ziehen seltene Arten von Meerestieren an, und auch Tümmler, Delphine und Seehunde. Entlang der Küste liegen kleine Dörfer und Seebäder, deren Strände viele Auszeichnungen verliehen wurden. Aberystwyth, New Quay, Cardigan und Aberaeron besitzen hübsche malerische Hafen.

Gran parte del hermoso litoral de Ceredigion está protegido como Patrimonio Nacional. Las cálidas aguas de la Bahía de Cardigan atraen a especies marinas raras tales como marsopas, delfines y focas. Agracian al litoral aldeas pequeñas y centros de turismo con playas magníficas. También son encantadores los puertos de Aberystwyth, New Quay, Cardigan y Aberaeron.

Traeth Cilborth Beach

Een lang stuk van de mooie kustlijn van Ceredigion is benoemd tot Heritage Coast (Cultureel Erfgoed). Het warme water van Cardigan Bay trekt zeldzame soorten wilde zeedieren waaronder bruinvissen, dolfijnen en zeerobben. Langs de kust liggen overal kleine dorpjes en badplaatsen met stranden die veel prijzen gewonnen hebben. Er zijn fantastische havens in Aberystwyth, New Quay, Cardigan en Aberaeron.

En stor del af Ceredigions vidunderlige kyst er designeret Heritage Coast (kystareal i folkeeje). De varme vande i Cardigan Bugten tiltrækker sjældne havdyrarter som f.eks. marsvin, delfiner og sæler. Kysten er overstrøet med små landsbyer og feriesteder, hvis strande har vundet adskillige priser. Aberystwyth, New Quay, Cardigan og Aberaeron har smukke, maleriske havne.

Mycket av den underbara kusten i Ceredigion har beteckningen “kulturarvskust”. Det varma vattnet i Cardigan Bay lockar sällsynta havsdjursarter, bl.a. tumlare, delfiner och sälar. Små byar och badorter ligger utströdda längs kusten, och badstränderna har fått många belöningar. Aberystwyth, New Quay, Cardigan och Aberaeron har vackra, pittoreska hamnar.

Cambrian Mountains

Mynyddoedd y Cambria

eredigion is sheltered to the east by the upland expanse of the Cambrian Mountains which covers over 760 square miles. This great mountain range is the source of some of Britain’s best known rivers.

The Severn - the UK’s longest river - and the picturesque Wye both stem from these uplands as do the Ystwyth, Rheidol, Teifi and Towy.

C

ysgodir Ceredigion rhag y gwyntoedd gaeafol o’r dwyrain gan Fynyddoedd y Cambria. Mae’r ucheldiroedd hyn yn ymestyn dros 760 milltir sgwâr ac o’u hunigeddau mae rhai o afonydd enwocaf y Deyrnas Unedig yn llifo: yr Hafren - yr hiraf o afonydd Prydain Fawr - yr afon Gwy, y Teifi, Ystwyth, Rheidol a’r Tywi.

Apart from the A44 linking Aberystwyth with Oxford - once described by the AA as one of the world’s most scenic road journeys - routes across the Cambrian Mountains have hardly changed since the days of the Drovers, other than that those single track roads are now covered with asphalt!

Heblaw am hen ffyrdd y Porthmyn - sy’n dal mewn bodolaeth o dan wyneb tarmac - dim ond un ffordd fawr sydd yn croesi Mynyddoedd y Cambria, sef yr A44 sy’n cysylltu dwy dref ag iddynt hen hanes dysg, sef, Aberystwyth â Rhydychen. Disgrifiodd yr AA y daith dros yr A44 fel un o siwrneiau harddaf y byd i gyd.

The upland scenery is truly stupendous and is ideal for walking, cycling and riding. There are also several well stocked upland lakes and reservoirs offering competitive angling opportunities.

C

Mae moelydd meithion Mynyddoedd y Cambria yn cynnig golygfeydd ysblennydd a chyfleoedd gwych ar gyfer cerdded, merlota a beicio. Mae cronfeydd a llynnoedd yr ucheldiroedd hefyd yn cynnig pysgota penigamp.

Ceredigion wird nach Osten von den weitläufigen kambrischen Bergen geschützt, die fast 1900 km2 umfassen.

Diese Berge sind ein distinktives Hochland von weiter, unverdorbener natürlicher Schönheit und das Quellgebiet von einigen der bekanntesten britischen Flüsse. Diese Hochlandschaft ist wirklich erstaunlich und bietet viele Möglichkeiten zum Wandern, Radfahren, Angeln und Reiten.

Ceredigion se cobija al este en las tierras altas de las Montañas cambrianas, que abarcan más de 1900 km2. Las Montañas cambrianas son tierras altas caracterizadas por belleza natural y son la cuna de algunos de los ríos más conocidos de Gran Bretaña. El paisaje de las tierras altas es realmente formidable para pasear, montar en bici, pescar y montar a caballo.

Angling

Pysgota

eredigion waters provide challenging sport for sea, shore, freshwater and coarse anglers. Indeed, increasing numbers of anglers visit Ceredigion in order to try their hand at all disciplines.

C

The most famous of Ceredigion’s rivers are the Teifi, Aeron, Rheidol and Ystwyth - not forgetting the seaward reaches of the Dyfi forming the county’s northeastern border with Powys. Freshwater angling on Ceredigion’s rivers focuses on trout, salmon and sewin (sea trout). The seaward reach of the Teifi, in particular, is considered world-class for its sewin. Upstream on all of Ceredigion’s rivers, the major challenge facing anglers is the wily wild brown trout.

Alongside the river beats, there are plentiful opportunities for reservoir, lake and pool fishing with Atlantic salmon, rainbow and brown trout on offer. Coarse angling devotees will usually encounter opportunities to fish for a wide variety of carp, tench, perch, rudd, chub, bream, gudgeon and roach.

Cardigan Bay is renowned for its bass and black bream but this is by no means the sole challenge presented by the varied opportunities afforded amongst the offshore reefs and sandbanks.

Boats may be chartered from several of Ceredigion’s small ports but if the weather is adverse, even for shore angling, there is plenty of compensation available within Ceredigion’s rivers, lakes and pools.

To find out more about angling in Ceredigion visit www.anglerswelcome.com

Plaisir des résidents et visiteurs, le caractère exaltant de ce sport en eau douce et en mer à Ceredigion continue de former les pêcheurs internationaux les plus chevronnés du Pays de Galles. Les rivières Teifi, Aeron, Ystwyth et Rheidol offrent d’excellentes parties de pêche à la truite brune sauvage, à la truite de mer et au saumon. Plusieurs autres points de pêche en eau douce combleront aussi ses adeptes.

I fyny’r afon - a hefyd ar yr Aeron, Rheidol a’r Ystwyth - yr her i bysgotwyr yw’r brithyll brown.

On the Hoof Ceredigion - county of the Welsh Cob. There are horses and ponies in abundance - many are renowned internationally and of excellent breeding. From several Royal Welsh Show winners and champions to riding club and pony club ponies, there’s definitely no shortage.

There are indoor riding schools, pony shows and agricultural shows as well as the popular annual Lampeter Stallion Show with entries from near and far. Challenging cross country courses and quiet bridleways lead riders through some of the Ceredigion’s best scenery with accommodation available en-route for both horse and rider.

But it’s not only agricultural and pony shows that attract competitors and visitors. The Aberaeron Festival of Welsh Ponies and Cobs held in the town’s Square Field in August is a real crowd puller. So too is the annual Barley Saturday parade in Cardigan. This is one of the biggest events of the year and sees horses, ponies and donkeys being judged before parading the streets. The streets are closed for one afternoon only on the last Saturday in April as the local stallions are paraded through the town. Old machinery and vintage cars are also paraded - a grand spectacle!

Harness racing has a long and established tradition in Ceredigion and, in recent years, the county has played host to the richest and most prestigious harness race meetings in the UK. During the summer months hundreds of horses and thousands of spectators from all over the UK make their way to the racetracks at Aberystwyth, Tregaron and Lampeter.

Towns & Villages

Trefi a Phentrefi

n terms of area, Ceredigion is Wales’s fourth largest county but its population is the third smallest. The largest town, Aberystwyth, is most cosmopolitan. During term-time, university students form a significant proportion of Aber’s population of some 15,000. The remainder of Ceredigion’s 70,000 residents live in or around some 150 other towns and villages spread across 1,795 square kilometres of the most rural part of Wales.

n ôl tirwedd - 1,795 o gilomedrau sgwâr - Ceredigion yw’r bedwaredd fwyaf o siroedd Cymru, ond y trydydd lleiaf o ran poblogaeth.

Dinesig ond Cymreig iawn o ran naws yw natur Aberystwyth, tref fwyaf Ceredigion. Yn ystod tymor y brifysgol cynrychiola’r myfyrwyr dros draean o boblogaeth Aberystwyth. Triga gweddill poblogaeth Ceredigion ym mhentrefi a threfi bychain gwasgaredig y sir.

In towns and villages throughout Ceredigion there are many small manufacturers of fancy goods and specialist products. Workshops and studios of many potters, wood-workers, craftsmen and artists are open to the public and craft fairs and farmers’ markets feature a wide variety of local crafts. Works of art by renowned local artists are displayed at galleries in Cardigan, Tregaron, Aberaeron and Aberystwyth.

Os am grefftau Cymreig a Cheltaidd, ewch i siop Rhiannon yn Nhregaron, tra bo rhai o arlunwyr adnabyddus Cymru, megis Aneurin Jones, sy’n cael eu hysbrydoli gan fywyd a chymeriadau cefn gwlad ac arfordir Ceredigion, yn arddangos eu gwaith mewn orielau yn Aberystwyth, Aberaeron, Aberteifi a Thregaron.

New Quay, Aberaeron and Aberystwyth all offer interesting historical Town Trails. The coastal town of New Quay was home to Dylan Thomas during his most productive writing period. There are Dylan Thomas trails to be followed around those Ceredigion localities dearest to Dylan. Events from Dylan’s time in New Quay are portrayed in the feature film ‘The Edge of Love’ starring Matthew Rhys and Sienna Miller as the poet and his wife Caitlin.

Mae llwybrau troed trefol i’w mwynhau o gwmpas trefi Aberaeron, Aberystwyth a’r Cei Newydd. Bu Dylan Thomas a’i deulu yn byw yn y Cei Newydd yn ystod ei gyfnod mwyaf cynhyrchiol fel awdur a bardd a gallwch ddilyn llwybrau Dylan Thomas o gwmpas ei hoff fannau yng Ngheredigion. I ddysgu mwy am gyfnod lliwgar y bardd yng Ngheredigion, gwyliwch y ffilm ‘The Edge of Love’ gyda Matthew Rhys yn portreadu Dylan.

Throughout the year towns and villages play host to fairs, festivals and events with sporting, cultural, agricultural and environmental themes. Harness racing is a regular feature in towns and villages throughout Ceredigion during the summer months with the Tregaron Trotting Club Harness Races rated amongst Wales’s most popular rural grasstrack meetings. The competitive canoeing events on the river Teifi at Llandysul are a true spectacle of skill.

Culture

Diwylliant

ulture and the arts retain their treasured significance within Ceredigion, as befits the area containing Wales’s two oldest universities, the location of the first national eisteddfod (held at Cardigan in 1176); and the National Library of Wales.

Cardigan, which recently celebrated its 900th anniversary, has a thriving arts scene with regular exhibitions, films, live theatre and music in the excellent facilities at Theatr Mwldan. The statue of Our Lady of Cardigan the national shrine of the Roman Catholic Church in Wales, blessed by Pope Benedict XVI during his visit to the UK in 2010, can be seen at Cardigan’s Catholic church. Benedictine monastery remains and a water mill at St Dogmaels also deserve a visit.

Inland from Aberaeron, Theatr Felinfach is a community theatre also welcoming touring productions.

Aberystwyth’s range of galleries include those at the Ceredigion Museum, the University’s School of Art, the National Library of Wales and the Aberystwyth Arts Centre - the largest in Wales - also offering a 1,000 seat concert hall, theatres and a cinema. The programme features internationally-renowned artistes, orchestras and production companies.

Less formal concerts and performances are a regular feature of village life with pubs and other venues playing host to local artists. Aberystwyth’s Commodore Cinema also shows the latest films.

The National Library of Wales is considered as one of the World’s greatest Libraries. Its priceless collections including books, manuscripts, photographs, maps, drawings and film, make it one of the nation’s most important repositories. Its collections include The Black Book of Carmarthen, the original manuscript of Chaucer’s Canterbury Tales and paintings by Turner, Gainsborough, and Kyffin Williams. Free exhibitions are staged throughout the year.

The Library holds free weekly tours of the building for the public, providing an opportunity to glimpse some of Wales’s national treasures. A series of films, live performances and lectures are also offered in the Library’s 100 seater ‘Drwm’ auditorium.

The Ceredigion Museum, housed in the Coliseum at Aberystwyth, a restored Edwardian music hall, once described as “probably the most beautiful museum in Britain” offers displays and objects to entertain, educate and amuse all ages. The National Wool Museum, south of the county, is also well worth a visit.

Ceredigion is er trots op duidelijk Welsh te zijn. ‘Ceredigion’ werd in 415AD als prinsdom gesticht. Vandaag is ‘t Welsh nog steeds de eerste taal van het grootste deel van de plaatselijke bevolking. Van de voorbije glorie is nog steeds iets te zien in fascinerende historische monumenten en kasteelruïnes. Een sterke traditie van Keltische literatuur en muziek blijft voortbestaan.

Ceredigion blev grundlagt som et fyrstedømme (Wales) i 415 e.Kr. og er meget stolt af at være walisisk. Walisisk er stadigt dets primære sprog for de fleste af dets indfødte indbyggere.

Fa i t h

Ffydd

eredigion’s motto proclaims the land’s wealth to be freedom. A longstanding freedom enjoyed and, sometimes, hard fought for within Ceredigion is that of expressing religious faith. In Ceredigion, education and culture have been built on that faith for more than a thousand years.

ae taith trwy Geredigion yn daith trwy hanes ffydd yn y sir dros y canrifoedd. Mae eglwysi, capeli a lleoliadau crefyddol Ceredigion yn frith o olion hynafol a hanesion y rheini a fu’n pregethu ac yn dathlu eu ffydd ynddynt ac a fu’n ysbrydoliaeth i eraill.

C

All over Ceredigion you can hunt out the history of religious faith since preRoman times. Visit the church at Ysbyty Cynfyn, near Devil’s Bridge to witness its enclosing wall, built to encompass a pre-Christian stone circle.

Christianity was but one of the faiths that the Romans brought here. After the fall of Rome in 400AD, the Christian tradition remained alive in Wales.

The two centuries that followed are often referred to as the “Age of Saints” - many of whom were educated in Wales and would spread Christianity to the other Celtic nations.

The Welsh word “Llan” is sometimes translated as meaning “church”. Attachment of a saint’s name to form place names in Ceredigion possibly derives from the Age of Saints. Some notable examples include Llanddewi, named after David, the patron saint of Wales who was raised at Henfynyw, near Aberaeron, and whose mother was called Non - thus Llanon. The small churches of Ceredigion boast centuries of history and many still protect ancient carved stones.

The great Cistercian monastery at Strata Florida flourished under the patronage of the last of the native princes of south west Wales, the Lord Rhys, but was largely laid to ruin following the dissolution of the monasteries in 1539, shortly after the imposition upon Wales of the Act of Union with England in 1536.

Wales had to wait until 1920 for the Church in Wales to be disestablished. In the meantime, Wales had become predominantly a nonconformist nation. Ceredigion still boasts dozens of small chapels with proud histories. The Teifi Valley, in particular, is home to one of the highest UK concentrations of Unitarian chapels.

Ranging from the National Shrine of the Catholic Church in Wales in Cardigan, to the most isolated upland chapel still functioning within Wales Soar y Mynydd, high in the Cambrian Mountains - Ceredigion has a fascinating variety of places to visit. Access more details at www.ceredigionfaithtrail.com

Les églises, chapelles et autres sites saints de Ceredigion témoignent de l’histoire des hommes et des femmes qui ont prêché et célébré la religion, et inspiré les habitants de la région mais aussi d’autres croyants. Le saint patron du Pays de Galles, Saint David (Dewi Sant), a grandi à Ceredigion. Un voyage à Ceredigion est une célébration des religions du passé et du présent.

Yma yng Ngheredigion - yn Henfynyw ger Aberaeron - y magwyd ein nawddsant, Dewi. Ganwyd ei fam, Non, yn Llanon ac yn Llanddewi Brefi cododd y tir o dan ei draed - un o wyrthiau mwyaf nodedig y Sant.

Erbyn y ddeuddegfed ganrif ’roedd presenoldeb y mynachod yn gryf yma.

Sefydlwyd Abaty Ystrad Fflur gan y Sistersiaid yn 1164 a bu’n ddylanwad cryf ar fywyd ysbrydol a seciwlar Ceredigion. Ffynnodd yr Abaty dan nawdd yr Arglwydd Rhys ac ’roedd y mynachod yn berchen ar diroedd helaeth rhwng Ystrad Fflur a Bae Ceredigion yn ystod y canol oesoedd.

Erbyn heddiw, olion yn unig a erys o’r cyfnod hwnnw yn Ystrad Fflur.

Ychydig flynyddoedd yn gynharach sefydlwyd abaty gan fynachod urdd Tiron yn Llandudoch, ger Aberteifi. Ceir yno olion o’r cyfnod hwnnw.

‘Roedd eglwys Llanbadarn Fawr ger Aberystwyth gyda’r pwysicaf o eglwysi’r cyfnod cyn-Normanaidd. Mae arddangosfa yn yr eglwys bresennol yn cofnodi hanes y cyfnod cynnar.

Yn y 1700au, ‘roedd plwyf Llanddewi Brefi yn ganolfan bwysig yn yr adfywiad crefyddol yng Ngheredigion. Cysylltir Llangeitho yn arbennig â’r pregethwr nodedig Daniel Rowland a arferai bregethu i dyrfaoedd enfawr yn yr awyr agored. Saif cofgolofn iddo y tu allan i gapel y pentref.

Dyffryn Teifi yw un o gadarnleoedd Undodiaeth ym Mhrydain - ardal a alwyd ‘Y Smotyn Du’ gan wrthwynebwyr yr Undodiaid. Cafodd yr Undodiaid gryn ddylanwad ar wleidyddiaeth a diwylliant y wlad ar ddiwedd y ddeunawfed a dechrau’r bedwaredd ganrif ar bymtheg. Bu Gwilym Marles yn weinidog Undodaidd yn Llwynrhydowen. Cefnogodd denantiaid yr ardal yn eu brwydr yn erbyn y meistri tir a’u rhenti uchel a’u gorfodaeth ar i denantiaid bleidleisio dros eu hymgeiswyr hwy. Ymatebodd y meistri tir trwy gloi’r tenantiaid allan o gapel Llwynrhydowen ond adeiladwyd capel newydd ar eu cyfer.

Mining Heritage

Treftadaeth Mwyngloddio

ead, silver and zinc with smaller amoiunts of copper were being mined in Ceredigion long before the Romans arrived. A gold “sun disc” (pictured below) unearthed in the Cwm Ystwyth mining area in 2002 has been dated to around 2500 BC.

ae ucheldiroedd Ceredigion yn frith o olion diwydiant sy’n deillio yn ôl canrifoedd. Bu cloddio am blwm, arian ac aur yng Ngheredigion ymhell cyn i’r Rhufeiniad gyrraedd a bu mwyngloddio yn ddiwydiant pwysig yng Ngheredigion yn ystod y 18fed a'r 19eg ganrif.

L

Lead was in use by the Romans and remained in use for many centuries until the issue of lead poisoning was discovered, putting a stop to making toys from lead and using lead-based chemicals in cosmetics.

By far the most deadly use of lead, however, involved bullets and it is by no means a coincidence that most of the last working lead mines in Ceredigion closed in the early 1920s, shortly after the end of the first World War when demand for munitions diminished.

Whole communities, within upland Ceredigion, owe their existence to a centuries-old involvement with lead mining. What’s surprising is the remaining visible inheritance of that industry. Apart from ruins of longabandoned mine workings in upland valleys, you’ll encounter man-made lakes from where water was once drawn to power the great water wheels at all the workings. Still curiously etched as long straight lines traversing mountainsides are the leets that channelled water from the reservoirs to one mine after another. At Pontrhydygroes – once an eldorado of lead mining – you can see a restored water wheel turn.

The narrow gauge Vale of Rheidol Railway, linking Devil’s Bridge with Aberystwyth, was originally developed in 1902 to serve the lead mines of the Ceredigion uplands. The journey enjoyed by thousands of visitors every year passes many ruined mines, some now hidden in the dense foliage of Cwm Rheidol. Take advantage of the railway’s audio tour to find out more.

Aberystwyth’s Ceredigion Museum has items associated with the history of mining and metal working in Ceredigion, including silver coins minted at Aberystwyth Castle after Charles I of England established a royal mint there in 1637. However, the Llywernog Silver Lead Mine Museum, near Ponterwyd, is the destination of choice for a guide to the metal mining industry, with even an opportunity to visit the underground workings.

Des communautés entières des plateaux de Ceredigion doivent leur existence depuis des siècles à l’extraction du plomb. Ce métal, ainsi que de petites quantités d’argent et de cuivre, étaient déjà extraits à Ceredigion bien avant l’arrivée des Romains. Un aspect surprenant est le patrimoine encore visible que nous a laissé cette industrie, y compris des mines abandonnées depuis longtemps dans les vallées en altitude.

M

Mae tirlun trawiadol ucheldir Ceredigion wedi ei ffurfio a’i newid gan bobl dros filoedd o flynyddoedd. Ceir tomenni rwbel ac adfeilion adeiladau ar wasgar ar draws y tirlun, gan dystio i ddiwydiant mwyngloddio a oedd unwaith yn ffynnu ac a adawodd ei ôl yn drwm ar hanes cymdeithasol a diwylliannol Ceredigion.

Dros y canrifoedd, denwyd pobloedd i’r ardal gan y cyfoeth o fwynau oedd yma. Nid oedd y cyflogau uchel a dalwyd i weithwyr yn ddigon i berswadio gweithwyr lleol i adael y tir am y mwyngloddiau.

Yn nyddiau prysuraf y diwydiant, gwelwyd cynnydd ym mhoblogaeth wasgaredig yr ucheldiroedd wrth i weithwyr symud i’r ardal o bob cwr o Gymru a thu hwnt – o ardaloedd mwyngloddio eraill fel Cernyw, Dyfnaint, Swydd Derby ac o’r Eidal a’r Almaen. Mewn cofnod o eiddo Lewis Morris, archwiliwr mwyngloddiau, ’roedd cynifer o ieithoedd yn cael eu siarad yn mwynglawdd Esgair-y-Mwyn ym 1755 nes iddo ei gymharu â Babel. Erbyn 1870 ’roedd tua 10,000 o weithwyr yn gysylltiedig â’r diwydiant.

Mae mwyngloddio metel wedi dod i ben erbyn hyn, ac mae’r ucheldiroedd yn ardal amaethyddol unwaith eto. Ond mae olion hanes diwydiannol a chymdeithasol cyfoethog mwyngloddio yng Ngheredigion yn amlwg – adfeilion gweithfeydd, simneiau ac olwynion dwˆr, y llynnoedd a grewyd i ddarparu dwˆr i’r gweithfeydd, ynghyd â’r pentrefi a ddatblygodd i gynnal y gweithlu.

Yn Amgueddfa Ceredigion yn Aberystwyth cewch gyfoeth o eitemau sy’n gysylltiedig â’r diwydiant tra bo Amgueddfa Plwm ac Arian Llywernog, i’r dwyrain o Aberystwyth, yn rhoi cipolwg ar fyd y cloddiwr metel yng Ngheredigion ac yn cynnig taith tanddaearol i hen gloddfa go iawn.

Ganze Gemeinden im oberen Ceredigion verdanken ihre Existenz dem Bleibergbau. Blei sowie kleinere Mengen von Silber und Kupfer wurden in Ceredigion lange vor Ankunft der Römer abgebaut. Überraschend ist das sichtbare verbleibende Erbtum dieser Industrie, einschließlich vieler seit langem stillgelegter Minen in den oberen Tälern.

Comunidades enteras de las tierras altas de Ceredigion deben su existencia a siglos de trabajo en minas de plomo. Éste, junto con menores cantidades de plata y cobre, se extraía de Ceredigion mucho antes de la llegada de los romanos. Sorprende la visible herencia de la industria, como numerosas minas abandonadas desde hace mucho tiempo en valles de tierras altas.

Vale of Rheidol Railway - Trên Stêm y Rheidol

Hele gemeenschappen binnen het hoogland van Ceredigion danken hun bestaan aan de eeuwenoude betrokkenheid bij loodmijnen. Lood en kleinere hoeveelheden zilver en koper werd al lang voordat de Romeinen arriveerden, in Ceredigion geëxploiteerd. De erfenis van deze industrie, zoals vele verlaten mijnen, is nog steeds in de valleien van het hoogland zichtbaar.

Hele samfund i bakkelandet Ceredigion er opstået som resultat af århundredegammelt engagement i blyminedrift. Der blev gravet efter bly og mindre mængder sølv og kobber længe før romernes ankomst. Det overraskende er, at der stadig er synlige tegn på denne industri, der omfatter mange for længst forladte miner i bakkelandets dale.

Hela samhällen på Ceredigions högland har grundats tack vare hundratals år av gruvdrift, där man i huvudsak utvunnit bly och mindre mängder silver och koppar. Detta gjorde man redan långt innan romarna anlände. Vad som förvånar är det synliga arvet efter denna industri, med flera för länge sedan övergivna gruvor synliga i höglandets dalar.

Mae’r System Graddio Seren yn bethnasol i bob math o lety: llety â gwasanaeth, gwestai, gwely a brecwast, llety fferm, hosteli; llety hunan-ddarpar a meysydd carafan a gwersylla.

Dyma’r graddau ansawdd:

★

Syml, ymarferol a dim ffrils

★★

Wedi ei gyflwyno a’i redeg yn dda

★★★

Safon dda o ran ansawdd a chysur

★★★★

Safon ardderchog ym mhob maes

Llety i Ymwelwyr ag Anableddau: Dylai pob busnes twristiaeth baratoi a chynnig Datganiad Mynediad i ddarpar ymwelwyr. Dyma'r unig ffordd o ddisgrifio’n gywir hygyrchedd busnesau twristiaeth. Pan yn bwcio, gofynnwch am weld y Datganiad Mynediad sydd wedi ei baratoi ar gyfer y llety.

PLYNLIMON & DEVIL’S BRIDGE PUMLUMON A PHONTARFYNACH nternationally famous for its waterfalls and Narrow Gauge Steam Railway, Devil’s Bridge is situated at the head of the Rheidol Valley amidst the Pumlumon mountain range. During the 19th and early 20th century, the region was an important silver and lead mining area. Two rushing streams - the Mynach and Rheidol descend dramatically into a gorge below the village where, over time, three different bridges have been built, one on top of the other. Visitors can enjoy several footpaths and walks to view the bridges and waterfalls.
