註釋
This is the story of the ownership of the lands of Llaneugrad parish over time. It begins back in the time of the Celts with their Druids, and finishes as the era of gentry-owned great estates is drawing to a close. In between, is a fascinating tale of the building of the Bodvel / Parciau estate, and its passage from Lord to Lord through the ages. Many of the owners were larger than life, some were scandalous, some had to navigate fraught political situations and one adopted a faith that got him into some serious hot water! It has been an unexpected delight to discover that our small parish in rural Anglesey was owned by such colourful and interesting characters indeed!
