OFF THE MAPS: THE MYSTERY OF THE DISAPPEARED GLYNDWR BATTLE SITES SOLVED.

Please see previous post referring to my enquiries regards prior marking of Glyndŵr Battle Sites on older O.S. Maps but then their disappearance from new maps. Following correspondence to and from O.S. I finally wrote to the RCAHMW and eventually received the following reply: . Dear Ms Ifan Thank you for your recent enquiry. I forwarded it to Brian Malaws , who deals with battlefields, and he has responded in the following way: From: Brian Malaws Sent: 22 September 2008 12:23 To: Penny.Icke@rcahmw.gov.uk Subject: Battlesites enquiry [mailto:brian.malaws@rcahmw.gov.uk] In response to Sian Ifan ’s queries to OS (below): Could you please inform me as to how many Welsh Battlefields are: 1: Marked on your maps at present. 2: How many were marked on your older maps but no longer, and why not? 3: Are you likely to mark further Welsh Battle sites on your maps in the near future and, if so, which? I would appreciate any information you can prov

BRWYDR BRYN GLAS 22 - Mehefin 1402: Kirsty Williams AM seeks Recognition for famouse Glyndwr Victory.

. Column for Mid Wales Journal [Run contact details at the top of each column: National Assembly for Wales, Cardiff Bay, CF99 1NA, T:02920 898743, E: Kirsty.Williams@Wales.gov.uk] Living in Mid Wales we are lucky to be surrounded not only by a spectacular natural landscape with rolling hills and sparkling streams but also by a rich tapestry of cultural and human history. We have castles sprinkled throughout the marches, forts topping our hilltops and ancient settlements in our lakes. We have beautiful spa towns and battle field sites from the age of Owain Glyndwr – we are indeed fortunate to have such a full and visible history. I spend a recent afternoon at the opening of the new Rhayader Museum and Gallery. Housed in a fantastic new building, there was a wonderful array of displays mapping the history of the local area. It was a pleasure to see and learn about the culture of the Rhayader district and it is a very valuable asset for the community. In a period of recession an

View of the Bryn Glas Battle Site In reply to below letter, see my letter in reply published in Western Mail but as this was edited, I include full unedited version in this post too. In this post as well photos of the Bryn Glas Battle site I recently visited, photos show what can be achieved by local effort here down to the Friends of Pilleth. However, must point out that Gethin Gruffydd and Toni Lewis had started to promote this Battle Site in the 'Sixties' and there is film of them visiting. As well Cofiwn in the 'Seventies' held events here and put up a provisional wooden plaque though today there has been made vast improvements to the site and it is indeed worth visiting. If all patriots in their communities did as the Friends of Pillleth
