Abaty Talyllychau yn y nudden
the resting place of Dafydd ap Gwilym, one of Europe's great medieval poets. He broke away from the convention of composing standard elegies and eulogies to the gentry and the wealthy to writing about love, nature and he himself became the focus of his work. There is also another tradition that claims that Dafydd is buried in Strata Florida.
