Whether they mounted their attacks from the north or the south, when Norman barons invaded Wales after the Norman Conquest of 1066, they almost invariably ended up in West Wales and consolidated their position by building fortresses. Initially, these were simple “motte and bailey” constructions, typically built on a mound with ditches and/or wooden barricades for protection.

  • THE NEWS of DINAS 1894 – 1900 Transcribed from the COUNTY ECHO
    THE NEWS OF DINAS 1894 – 1900 transcribed from THE COUNTY ECHO DINAS HISTORY SERIES his book is a transcription of all the Dinas news items from The County Echo, a Fishguard-based newspaper, for the years 1894, Twhen the newspaper commenced publication, to 1900 inclusive. The content is remarkable for its comprehensive coverage of village life. The correspondent(s), perhaps unwittingly, produced a social history of Dinas in the last seven years of the nineteenth century, one which almost reads, without editorial help, as a connected narrative. A picture emerges of a lively, sometimes controversial, but confident community in the far-south-western fringe of Wales at the very end of the Victorian era. The way of life recorded is both rural and truly parochial, but always tempered with the globe-trotting adventures and tragedies of the many sailors and master mariners from the village. This was still the age of the horse and cart, with bicycles being a novelty. Chapel and church life, along with deferential accounts of the clergy involved, inevitably take a prominent part in the narrative as do the fulsome accounts of funerals and tragedies; however, social innovation in the form of a Regatta in 1899 is proudly recorded. The Temperance Movement, so vitally important at the turn of the century, is faithfully described in its manifestations from hayfield to chapel. The text is presented without editing or alteration, variable spellings and local usage being preserved; where some doubt exists over the original, then the editorial convention of square brackets is used. Only one comment is made and that to explain a deliberate policy of concealment by the correspondent.
