More about this scene

The bridge was built in 1661. Carrog, or Llansantffraid Glyndyfrdwy, is in the heart of the lands of Owain Glyndwr, the marcher lord. Following a land dispute with Reginald de Grey, Owain proclaimed himself Prince of Wales and rose against the English in 1400. Few visitors now could guess of Carrog's involvement in some of Wales's most violent years.
