Hi, Does anyone out there know of or even have access to Pennants "Tours of Wales".Apparently the book mentions Nant Gwythern and in particular three farms - Ty Hen , Ty Canol and Ty Uchaf. I am interested to know what it says about Ty Canol as my Griffiths and Rowlands relatives lived at Ty Canol.There is also aparently a story about ELIS BACH a dwarf who lived at Ty Canol.I don't know if this character is mentioned in Pennants book too but I found out about both at the following site :- http://www.acen.co.uk/nant/history.shtml Anyone with any further info would be most welcome Thanks Paul
Hi, I do believe that the best place for you to contact with regard to your request for an extract from Pennant's Tours of Wales would be the National Library of Wales in Aberystwyth. For their email address, any search engine will enlighten you.
