Prince Llywelyn ap Gruffydd ruled most of Wales from 1246 to 1282. The exact circumstances of his death are uncertain but chronicles suggest that on the day before his death he was tricked away from his army of some 7000, which he left at Abbey Cwm Hir, to keep a rendezvous with someone - a traitor – at Aberedw. Llewelyn was captured and beheaded and his unsuspecting army was annihilated on the land that is now the Builth Wells golf course. Llywelyn was beheaded and his head crowned with ivy and sent to be displayed on the Tower of London. Since 1996, John Davies (John the Rocks) from Llandysul has co-ordinated a weekend every December for a get together where Welsh patriots reflect upon this treacherous day 700 years ago and listen to speeches about regaining Welsh independence. This year there were moving speeches by Plaid Cymru President Jill Evans MEP, Jonathan Edwards Plaid MP and Roger Williams Lib Dem MP. Also pilgrims were treated to passionate Welsh Choral Music from The Builth Wells Male Voice Choir and Cor Cochion (the Cardiff Red Choir).
