  • Inspection Report Ysgol Eifionydd 2018
    A report on Ysgol Eifionydd Porthmadog Gwynedd LL49 9HS Date of inspection: April 2018 by Estyn, Her Majesty’s Inspectorate for Education and Training in Wales A report on Ysgol Eifionydd April 2018 About Ysgol Eifionydd Ysgol Eifionydd is a naturally bilingual secondary school for 11-16 year-old pupils. It is situated in the town of Porthmadog in Gwynedd, and pupils come from the towns of Porthmadog and Criccieth, and the rural area of Eifionydd. There are 364 pupils on roll, which is 67 fewer pupils than at the time of the last inspection in October 2011. Around 8.9% of pupils are eligible for free school meals, which is lower than the national figure of 17%. Seventeen per cent of pupils are on the school’s additional learning needs register, which is lower than the national average. Two point two per cent (2.2%) of pupils have a statement of special educational needs, which is very close to the national figure. Sixty-nine per cent of pupils come from Welsh-speaking homes. A very few pupils are from ethnic minority backgrounds. The headteacher has been in post since April 2016. The school’s senior management team includes the headteacher and two assistant headteachers. Further information is available from the Welsh Government My Local School website at the link below. http://mylocalschool.wales.gov.uk/Schools/SchoolSearch?lang=en 1 A report on Ysgol Eifionydd April 2018 Summary Ysgol Eifionydd is a close community with a caring and supportive ethos. Most pupils behave well and treat their teachers, visitors and peers with respect.

  • A Welsh Classical Dictionary
    A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’).

The Lord Lieutenant is thus the chief executive authority in that county, through whom the policy decisions of the central government would be directed. Conversely he would represent the considerations of the county at Court and to the government. Because of these exalted duties the honour was usually given to the principal aristocratic landowner in the county. Deputy lieutenants would be appointed to carry out the directions given by him. The office also had the power to recommend, and so thus constitute, the Commission of the Peace, the body of justices of the peace or magistrates who supervised the legal and administrative systems of the county though the medium of their Quarter Sessions court. The Lord Lieutenant also had responsibility for local defence and accordingly controlled the county militia forces. This aspect of his work is dealt with in more detail in the second introduction. The collection catalogued below contains some of the working papers, mainly correspondence, of four successive Lord Lieutenants of Caernarvonshire and one future Lord Lieutenant as a Vice Lieutenant.

Go past Hafan Y Môr on your left and and take the next main right turn for the Medieval Halland then immediately left onto the old road sign posted "access only" and the property is the first one on the left hand side. Description This period cottage is situated on the South coast of the famous Llyn Peninsula - just five miles from the renowned town of Criccieth and within easy reach of such towns and villages as Abersoch, Llanbedrog, Nefyn and Pwllheli with its now famous marina. The cottage is thought to date from the mid 1800's and retains many of its original features being of stone construction under a slate roof and with a superb exposed Inglenook fireplace in the lounge and beamed ceilings to the lounge and study; exposed staircase with original baluster and further exposed beams to the first floor rooms. The view over the garden and over the open fields to the coast is outstanding - on the "right day" one can even see Strumble Head in Pembrokeshire whilst almost all the coast line is visible throughout the year together with a range of mountains from Porthmadog to Constitution Hill near Aberystwyth. The property is situated on the "Old Road" - the A497 from Criccieth to Pwllheli which has now been superseded by the new length of the A497 passing some 50 metres in front of the house whilst the "Old Road" is very much the private access and parking for this property and its one neighbour.
