Friends burial ground, Llwyngwril

Mynwent Bryn Tallwyn burial ground. Bluebells and hawthorn in flower. In the 17th century many Quakers (members of the Religious Society of the Friends of Truth) settled here to avoid persecution elsewhere. Owen Humphrey of nearby Llwyn Du donated land for burials around 1664 (although the date wrought in the gate is 1646). When William Penn established settlements in the New World many migrated there. By 1876 there were no Quakers living locally and Wesleyans were granted the right to bury their dead here, with the western portion reserved for quaker burials.
