"Cartrefi Cymru" by Sir Owen Morgan Edwards is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book explores notable homes and locations throughout Wales, delving into the lives of significant Welsh figures associated with these places. The opening chapters introduce various residences, highlighting their historical and cultural significance while sketching brief biographies of notable individuals like Ann Griffiths and Ap Vychan. The beginning of "Cartrefi Cymru" sets the tone with a vivid exploration of the Welsh countryside, specifically focusing on the residence of Ann Griffiths, Dolwar Fechan. The narrator describes their journey to this almost mythic location, detailing the landscape, weather, and interactions with local inhabitants, which reflect a deep reverence for the past. Accompanied by a sense of nostalgia, the reader learns about the former lives and achievements tied to these homes, cementing their importance in Welsh cultural history. The opening captures both the beauty of the Welsh landscape and the stories of pride and struggle that emerge from it, inviting readers to reflect on the intertwining of place and identity in Welsh life.
