More about this scene
Llandysul was an important Dark Age and medieval settlement, and the 13th-century church tower exemplifies this. There are a number of pre-Norman and medieval inscribed stones inside the church, which, unusually for a Ceredigion church, has both nave and aisles. The village was an important centre for weaving, but is now more famous for white water canoeing.

Their graves are close to the wall of the chapel in the village. Jack was the eldest of 7 ...see more
I did not know many of the people of the village or much of the history of the village. However there were some who stay in my memory and to this day I often think about them. All too often I cannot remember their names. I know nothing of their lives. Their trials and tribulations or indeed if they were born in the village. One such person was a Mrs Baker (at least that's what I think her name was), a very ...see more
My family and I relocated to Llangattock in or about 1955/6. We came from the American army camp at Dan-yr-Park. I rather think that the local people thought we were aliens of some sort and regarded us somewhat disdainfully and not to be trusted. However we soon integrated into village life and I hope we are remembered as decent folk. We occupied a house in the new estate Plas der Wen and it was a great home to ...see more
