TALYBONT WI TAKE THE INITIATIVE Some of the signs at the junction of Station Road were looking neglected and covered in green mould, so members of Talybont WI set to and decided to spruce them up. Although the terrain was steep, especially as we are all pensioners, it was uplifting when passing motorists and cyclists shouted out words of encouragement. Hopefully this improves the appearance of the village and makes it easier and safer for visitors to read. Cherry Jones 2. Cross Oak War Memorial Project Your Community Council have been successful in obtaining a grant of £3857.40 for works to improve and restore the War Memorial at Cross Oak. The funds were provided by Powys War Memorial Project, and our thanks go to Catherine Pugh, Project Officer, for all her advice and support throughout the project. The monument commemorates those who lost their lives in the First and Second World Wars, with the names of the fallen listed coming from our three parishes. The monument is Grade 2 listed in its setting, with the site of the old ‘Iron’ Church and neighbouring cottages adding collective historical value. The work has been carried out to a high standard by our local building contractor J.L Stephens Ltd, with additional specialist services provided by R.L. Evans, Brecon. Work has included excavating the verge, laying kerbs, strengthening the base and providing heritage flagstones. Further to this the iron railings have been surface treated and painted with a high gloss metal paint. The monument, which has three concrete steps and Portland stone tapered pillar, has received specialist surface treatments to show the detail in the Celtic Cross, which is boldly decorated with interlace. The work undertaken is a commitment and mark of respect to those who gave their lives and improves the overall aesthetic value of the monument. We acknowledge support from the Powys War Memorials project funders - the Heritage Lottery Fund, Powys County Council, CADW and Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. Craig Burdon Many thanks to the volunteers and Talybont Stores who help in the distribution of this newsletter. Also to the individuals, groups and Summer 2019 societies who have contributed articles for this edition. Talybont History - Number 1 Talybont History - Number 2 Pubs in Llanddetty Parish 1851 In Talybont we are blessed with four licensed premises, but in 1851 we had eight ! In that year, for Census purposes, the Parish of Llanddetty was divided into two districts; one lying nearer the Usk Valley south west of the river, the other in part of Glyn Collyn. The Enumerator for both districts recorded the dwellings, the names, ages, marital status, occupation and birthplace of each inhabitant. The Usk Valley district began at the boundary with the parish of Llangynidr and met the boundary of the parish of Llanfeugan close to where the Post Office now is. No less than six public houses were listed in this District: The Traveller’s Rest, The Wharf Inn, The White Hart, The Carrier’s Arms, The Star Inn and The Golden Lion. (The Usk Inn was built after the railway had arrived, about 1862.) There were also two pubs in the Glyn Collyn district, The Halfway House and The Rock Inn. One might think the inhabitants had quite a thirst to need so many pubs. Maybe so, but what may have increased their number was the Beer Act of 1830. Under a banner of ‘reducing public drunkenness’ this Act introduced ‘beer houses’, a new lower tier of premises permitted to sell alcohol but not wines or spirits. Freely available beer was intended to wean drinkers off the cheap evils of gin. Hogarth's print Gin Lane mocked gin drinkers: 'Drunk for a penny, dead drunk for tuppence...'. Under the 1830 Act any householder who paid rates could apply, with a one-off payment of two guineas, to sell beer or cider in his home and even to brew his own on his premises. By 1838, 46,000 Beer Houses had opened in England and Wales. Seamus Hamill-Keays Exactly where The Wharf Inn, The Carrier’s Arms and The Golden Lion were located is unknown but the list of six pubs above runs up the Valley so a good guess may be made. Cheers!

It was a very successful Urdd down in Cardiff Bay over half-term. The Welsh Language Commissioner has been asking to hear our views through the Brecon and Radnor, about opportunities to use Welsh, so I have been in contact with him. Thursday 4 Jul 7.30 pm in The Tap, Brecon saw the book club for learners. We had read 'Y Stryd', level sylfaen and it was then discussed. 'Siop Siariad Cymraeg' meets in The White Hart every Friday morning 10 and will be discussing their views of the S4C programme 'Trysorau'r Teulu (presently on S4C every Thursday at 8pm) with John Rees, who co-presents the programme. Contact me if you want to know about any of these activities, or to start a small (just starting to learn Welsh) group.

  • 'IARRIAGES Introduction This Volume of 'Stray' Marriages Is Published with the Hope That It Will Prove
    S T R A Y S Volume One: !'IARRIAGES Introduction This volume of 'stray' marriages is published with the hope that it will prove of some value as an additional source for the familv historian. For economic reasons, the 9rooms' names only are listed. Often people married many miles from their own parishes and sometimes also away from the parish of the spouse. Tracking down such a 'stray marriage' can involve fruitless and dishearteninq searches and may halt progress for many years. - Included here are 'strays', who were married in another parish within the county of Powys, or in another county. There are also a few non-Powys 'strays' from adjoining counties, particularly some which may be connected with Powys families. For those researchers puzzled and confused by the thought of dealing with patronymics, when looking for their Welsh ancestors, a few are to be found here and are ' indicated by an asterisk. A simple study of these few examples may help in a search for others, although it must be said, that this is not so easy when the father's name is not given. I would like to thank all those members who have helped in anyway with the compilation of this booklet. A second collection is already in progress; please· send any contributions to me.

  • The Search for San Ffraid
    The Search for San Ffraid ‘A thesis submitted to the University of Wales Trinity Saint David in the fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts’ 2012 Jeanne Mehan 1 Abstract The Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, called in Ireland and Scotland St Brigid (also called Bride, Ffraid, Bhríde, Bridget, and Birgitta) have not previously been documented. This Irish saint is said to have traveled to Wales, but the Welsh evidence comprises a single fifteenth-century Welsh poem by Iorwerth Fynglwyd; numerous geographical dedications, including nearly two dozen churches; and references in the arts, literature, and histories. This dissertation for the first time gathers together in one place the Welsh traditions related to San Ffraid, integrating the separate pieces to reveal a more focused image of a saint of obvious importance in Wales. As part of this discussion, the dissertation addresses questions about the relationship, if any, of San Ffraid, St Brigid of Kildare, and St Birgitta of Sweden; the likelihood of one San Ffraid in the south and another in the north; and the inclusion of the goddess Brigid in the portrait of San Ffraid. 2 Contents ABSTRACT ........................................................................................................................ 2 CONTENTS........................................................................................................................ 3 FIGURES ...........................................................................................................................
