Here is a map of Llanwnda. During Richard Fenton’s life, a ghostly lady was said to haunt Lady’s Gate, near which a treasure lay hidden. But by the date of this map (1907), all recollection of ghost and treasure had faded away. #EYAMonsters #MapMonday

Dyma fap o Lanwnda. Yn ystod bywyd Richard Fenton, dywedir bod gwraig ysbrydol yn aflonyddu ar Lady’s Gate, lle roedd trysor wedi'i guddio. Ond erbyn dyddiad y map hwn (1907), roedd pob atgof am ysbryd a thrysor wedi pylu. #EYAMonsters #MapMonday
