Surprises in Llanddyfnan – Anglesey History
https://angleseyhistory.wordpress.com/2016/11/11/surprises-in-llanddyfnan
Anglesey History Web Site. November 11, 2016. January 3, 2017. After a few shots of the church I began wandering around the graveyard, mindful that some of the people I mentioned in my recent blog about the abandoned house, Ynys, at Cors Bodeilio. But the real surprises were to be found in the newer section of the cemetery. I spotted a grave with a number of plants and flowers around it, and a familiar name. Ann Benwell was a prominent local historian, a retired university lecturer, devoted membe...Of wh...

Anglesey History Web Site. An Iron Age Tardis? Bryn Eryr roundhouses at St. Fagans. September 20, 2016. September 20, 2016. Bryn Eryr roundhouses, St. Fagans. It’s bigger on the inside than it appears from outside, and it lets you travel back in time, like Dr. Who’s Tardis. That was my first thought when I ducked through the low entrance into the high-ceilinged space of the reconstructed Bryn Eryr roundhouses at St. Fagans open air history museum. Excavated a site on the farm where early archaeologists h...

History of the House in the Marsh – Anglesey History
https://angleseyhistory.wordpress.com/2016/10/01/history-of-the-house-in-the-marsh
Anglesey History Web Site. History of the House in the Marsh. October 1, 2016. October 1, 2016. Most history about buildings is written about large and interesting houses, churches, castles, shops and other places. However, sometimes the history of small, remote and obscure dwellings can be just as intriguing. Ponies on the boardwalk, Cors Bodeilio. One of my favourite nearby places for a short walk is Cors Bodeilio. Map of Cors Bodeilio, 1899. Ynys, Cors Bodeilio, 2005. In the 1871 census the house name...

I used to work in a factory. Now I work in an office. Either way, my writing was dying. So now I must: Write.or Die Trying. FROM BEING TO NOTHINGNESS. FROM BEING TO NOTHINGNESS. The Life and Suicide of Hunter S. Thompson. Posted by J. Brisbin @ 7/29/2005 03:59:00 PM. I've been doing some research on the Welsh traditions and, by extension, the Druids, for a possible novel set on the Isle of Anglesey. Here's some interesting information from a site I visit frequently: Irish Druids And Old Irish Religions.

The Irishman in Church Island Cemetery – Anglesey History
https://angleseyhistory.wordpress.com/2016/10/30/the-irishman-in-church-island-cemetery
Anglesey History Web Site. The Irishman in Church Island Cemetery. October 30, 2016. November 6, 2016. When visiting historic churches, I always have a wander around the cemetery, looking at inscriptions old and new. I often wonder what this person was like, or how that person lived their life. Occasionally, the inscription gives a tantalising clue to an interesting story, which I will sometimes try to follow up later. On a recent trip to the St Fagan’s. I contacted some of the people who had posted thes...
