ABERCONWY MS Janet Finch-Saunders planted trees at the birthplace of Bishop William Morgan, the man to translate the Bible into Welsh.
The planting was part of Mrs Finch-Saunders’ visit to the National Trust’s Ty Mawr Wybrnant site, located in Penmachno, Conwy.
“I was thrilled to recently meet with Trystan Edwards, National Trust General Manager for Snowdonia & Orme, Mr Andrew Roberts, Lead Ranger for Snowdonia & Orme and with Ms Lowri Rees, External Affairs consultant for the National Trust, to review the continued good work of the organisation at Ty Mawr Wybrnant,” said Mrs Finch-Saunders.

“It was an honour to plant two trees at the birthplace of Bishop Williams Morgan, the individual who translated the Bible into Welsh.
“His work created a standard version of written Welsh for the first time, and therefore continued to have an impact on everyday life in Wales today.
“I hope that the trees I have planted help bring even more life and colour to a place which played a key role in shaping the Wales and Welsh of today.”
