LLANDIVRIOG

Is a very pleasant well-wooded parish, near the town of Newcastle Emlyn, on the opposite side of the river.

CHURCH

This is a vicarage, in the Bishoprick of St. David’s, and is dedicated to Tyvriog, the son of Dingad ab Nudd Hael, a saint who lived about the conclusion of the sixth century.

It stands in a romantic situation. The following are the four last incumbents, the Rev. Mr. David Richards, the Rev. Mr.-Griffiths, the Rev. Mr. Tho. Howels, and the Rev. Mr. John Williams.

CILGWYN

This is now the principal seat in this parish, and belonged formerly to a family of the name of Lloyd, the last of which, Rhys, leaving a daughter named Mary, she married and conveyed the estate to Thomas Lloyd, second son of David Lloyd, of Gilvachwen, in the parish of Llandyssil; their son

Since the death of Captain Thomas Lloyd, it has belonged to Thomas Lloyd, Esq., of Coedmawr, his son.

John Lloyd above-mentioned, who married Dorothy, daughter to Walter Vaughan, is thus noticed in a manuscript, entitled, “A true Character of the deportment for these eighteen years last past, of the principal gentry within the counties of Caermarthen, Pembroke, and Cardigan,” written about the year 1661: —

“John Lloyd, a royalist of an even temper, quitted all offices in 1643, compounded for his delinquency, liveth a retired hospitable life, neither ambitious, nor a contemner of those publique employments that his fortune and capacity do deserve.”

ATPAR,

In the parish of Llandivryog, is that part of Newcastle Emlyn which stands in Cardiganshire. It is a contributary borough, has a weekly market, and six fairs in the course of the year. For misconduct in the election of a member to Parliament in the year 1742, it was voted by that august assembly to have forfeited its charter.

The lordship, or manor of Dyfryn Teivy and of Atpar, belongs to the Lord Bishop of St. David’s, and consists of all the parishes of Bangor and Henllan, with a part of Llandivriog, and two farms in Llandysillo gogo. There is a common belonging to it in the parish of Llandivriog. The court is kept at Trebedie, in the parish of Henllan, the steward of which is Charles Morgan, Esq., of Caermarthen, and the deputy steward William Williams, Esq., of Blaendyfryn. In the time of the great rebellion, namely, on the 25th of February, 1647, the manors of Atpar, Dyfryn Teivi, and Llandygwydd were sold to David Lewis for £277 14s. 10d.

Nothing now remains but the ruins of this church, a situation in which it has been for many years. It is a rectory, in the gift of the Bishop of St. David’s. The profits of it are annexed to Llandivriog.

On the south side of the church, and not far from it, is a circular moated tumulus, formerly used as a place of defence.
