Rhan oCwrtmawr manuscripts
A transcript of a journal of a tour from Aberystwith to Llanbeder, Brecknockshire, with occasional later annotations and corrections partly in the hand of Henry Thomas Payne (1759-1832) archdeacon of Carmarthen. The itinerary comprised Devil's Bridge, Hafod, Cwm Ystwith, Pentrebrwynant, Rhaiadrgwy, Buallt, Erwood, Llyswen, Brynllys, Talgarth, Trevecca, Llangors, Cathedine, and Crickhowel. The paper of the volume is watermarked 1824, but the tour must have been undertaken before the death in 1816 of Thomas Johnes of Hafod.
