@midsaint776 Hi to you! You're right - Derlwyn DID have a shop attached, originally part of the main house, but then separated off (the connecting door used to be under Derlwyn's main staircase). At the time you're thinking of, the shop would have been run by Peter Owen, with my Nain (Sydna Roberts) living in the main house. Does your aunt know Jane Seaborne (nee Roberts) by any chance?
my nain was a cousin of robert roberts , and she was the youngest daughter of huw evans in ty hir . my mother jane jones ( nee rowlands) was born in ty hir on 13-04-29 . she will be 82 next week . she exchanges christmas cards each year with jane . i am huw the grandson of nel rowlands and gwyneth jones whom lives at no 1 derlwyn , is my mothers cousin .
Know the place well, I was born and raised in Penllech, near the Dive Inn [penrallt]. Still have a caravan on Towyn farm, its nice to go back to your roots.
My mother was born in Tudweiliog - the prominent house 'Derlwyn' (now subdivided into flats) was built by my grandfather. I spent many happy times in my childhood there, watching RAF Lightning fighters playing silly buggers from Anglesey. Such memories.
hi my aunt lives at no1 derlwyn. she used to live at a nearby farm cwmistir. i go and visit her whenever i come up from leicester for my hols . i seem to remember derlwyn being a tiny grocery store when i was small . i know tudweiliog and nefyn well , as i've been going there for holidays since i was born 48 years ago. we used to stay with my nain and taid when they were alive. they lived in a gorgeous cottage called dol garnedd in morfa nefyn.
This is a great video!! I have just pitched my caravan in Tudweiliog for the summer. Can't wait to start using it now :-)
