Hanes Pentyrch History

Pentyrch and District Local History Society

The Pentyrch and District Local History Society was founded in 1993 by a group of enthusiasts to: preserve, collate and make available information on the history of the Parish of Pentyrch; promote an awareness of the historical background of the villages in the parish; and encourage the contribution of others to help fill the gaps in our knowledge.
