This summer the Abbey Cwmhir Heritage Trust will be running the fourth excavation season of a settlement site within the home grange of the Cistercian abbey in the beautiful hills of north Radnorshire. Abbey Cwmhir is celebrated as the burial place of Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, the Last Prince of Wales, in 1282.
In 2026 we anticipate that there will be further finds of pottery and we are also aware that contexts containing charcoal remain to be explored, including evidence of the hearth inside the building. For this reason we are seeking crowdfunding towards covering the costs of radiocarbon dating and pottery analysis.
Anything you can donate would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance
