-Trawsfynydd, or Llanednowain as it -was known in pre-Roman times... | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |
-..is located in the beauty -of the old county of Meirionnydd... | 0:00:47 | 0:00:51 | |
-..which is now known -as southern Gwynedd. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
-This pleasant village is -a stronghold of the Welsh language. | 0:00:56 | 0:01:01 | |
-Around 86% of the population -speak Welsh fluently. | 0:01:01 | 0:01:05 | |
-Trawsfynydd's wonderful landscape -has inspired many poets and authors. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:11 | |
-One of the most famous -is Hedd Wyn... | 0:01:11 | 0:01:15 | |
-..who was born in the village -before moving to Yr Ysgwrn. | 0:01:15 | 0:01:19 | |
-The landscape and its history -continues to inspire local people. | 0:01:19 | 0:01:24 | |
-One author and musician who loves -living here is Dewi Prysor. | 0:01:24 | 0:01:29 | |
-It's a wonderful area -which must be steeped in history. | 0:01:29 | 0:01:34 | |
-Yes, every inch of it. -Every breath carries the history. | 0:01:35 | 0:01:39 | |
-The Bwlch y Llu gold mine -is behind us. | 0:01:39 | 0:01:43 | |
-It used to be known as Moel Croesau. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
-It's not a working mine but -surveying is still permitted there. | 0:01:47 | 0:01:50 | |
-Gold from the mine -was used to make a ring... | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
-..for Prince Edward's bride, Sophie. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:57 | |
-The gold came from here, did it? | 0:01:57 | 0:01:59 | |
-The gold came from here, did it? - -Yes, from this gold mine. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
-I was raised just over there. -It's Cwm Prysor gold. | 0:02:02 | 0:02:07 | |
-Why don't they give it to me? | 0:02:07 | 0:02:08 | |
-Why don't they give it to me? - -It's your gold! | 0:02:08 | 0:02:10 | |
-Dewi, there's an old ruin here. -Tell us more about it. | 0:02:17 | 0:02:20 | |
-This is Dolau. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:22 | |
-Its real name is Dolddinas -but we've always called it Dolau. | 0:02:22 | 0:02:26 | |
-It's been a ruin for over 50 years. | 0:02:26 | 0:02:30 | |
-There's an old tale about it. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:32 | |
-A maid lived here many years ago. | 0:02:32 | 0:02:35 | |
-She worked in Bryn Celynnog -where my grandfather used to live. | 0:02:35 | 0:02:40 | |
-She was walking home one day -during a snowstorm. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:46 | |
-She walked across Raethlyn lake -and fell through the ice. | 0:02:46 | 0:02:50 | |
-Her lover wrote a song -in memory of her... | 0:02:50 | 0:02:54 | |
-..and the lake was named Hiraethlyn. | 0:02:54 | 0:02:58 | |
-It's a legend. | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
-You old romantic! | 0:03:00 | 0:03:02 | |
-You old romantic! - -It is a nice story, though. | 0:03:02 | 0:03:04 | |
-Are there any Roman ruins -around here? | 0:03:04 | 0:03:08 | |
-Tomen y Mur is over there. | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
-This is an old Roman road. | 0:03:11 | 0:03:13 | |
-It goes from Tomen y Mur -to Dolbelydr. | 0:03:13 | 0:03:16 | |
-It's one of four Roman roads -in Tomen y Mur. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
-At one time, they thought -it passed Raethlyn lake... | 0:03:21 | 0:03:24 | |
-..east of the lake -and on to Prysor Castle... | 0:03:24 | 0:03:29 | |
-..and over the top to Caer Gai. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
-In 1996, they found -that it went over this way... | 0:03:31 | 0:03:36 | |
-..passing the house at Dolau... | 0:03:37 | 0:03:39 | |
-..and over to Fadfilltir -to the west of Raethlyn lake. | 0:03:40 | 0:03:44 | |
-You said this place -was full of history. | 0:03:44 | 0:03:47 | |
-It's wonderful coming here alone -and listening to the silence. | 0:03:47 | 0:03:52 | |
-You feel history breathing -around you and talking to you. | 0:03:52 | 0:03:56 | |
-Let's go in search of more history. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:00 | |
-Lead the way. | 0:04:00 | 0:04:02 | |
-We're on the Roman road now. | 0:04:05 | 0:04:07 | |
-How many legions walked -along this road, I wonder. | 0:04:07 | 0:04:10 | |
-It was nice getting -to know the area... | 0:04:13 | 0:04:15 | |
-..with someone who's so passionate -about local history. | 0:04:16 | 0:04:19 | |
-The next stop on our journey -was Prysor Castle... | 0:04:19 | 0:04:23 | |
-..another place -which is close to Dewi's heart. | 0:04:23 | 0:04:27 | |
-I must admit, I've driven -along this road hundreds of times... | 0:04:27 | 0:04:33 | |
-..but I didn't know -this castle existed here. | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
-It's a significant site -from the Middle Ages. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
-It was thought that Owain Gwynedd -built it first. | 0:04:42 | 0:04:45 | |
-In 1988, a geological survey -was carried out... | 0:04:45 | 0:04:49 | |
-..by a man named -Martin de Levandowicz. | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
-He found, on this site -around us and over there... | 0:04:54 | 0:04:58 | |
-..the remains of a large hall, -a court and a blacksmith. | 0:04:58 | 0:05:03 | |
-They were exactly the same style, -size and type of buildings... | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
-..as those in Llys Rhosyr... | 0:05:08 | 0:05:09 | |
-..the court of Llywelyn The Great -in Aberffraw and Abergwyngregyn. | 0:05:10 | 0:05:14 | |
-He showed that this was a court -of one of the Princes of Gwynedd. | 0:05:14 | 0:05:19 | |
-It's highly likely... | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-..that it was built -by Llywelyn the Great... | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
-..or more recently -by Llywelyn ap Gruffydd. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:29 | |
-They could find a lot more if they -started digging under the surface. | 0:05:29 | 0:05:33 | |
-They could unlock all-important -secrets and information... | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
-..about the history of the Princes -of Gwynedd and Wales itself. | 0:05:39 | 0:05:43 | |
-If they could only get the funding -to do it... | 0:05:43 | 0:05:47 | |
-..instead of throwing money -at Norman castles. | 0:05:47 | 0:05:51 | |
-It's something that's very close -to your heart - Prysor. | 0:05:51 | 0:05:55 | |
-Prysor Castle - -it was named after me! | 0:05:55 | 0:05:58 | |
-A real eye-opener. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
-Thank you very much, Dewi. | 0:06:01 | 0:06:03 | |
-Relics of the slate industry -are evident all over this area. | 0:06:11 | 0:06:14 | |
-Dewi Williams and his brother Gwyn -run Llechi Ithfaen... | 0:06:15 | 0:06:20 | |
-..a company that makes furniture -for the house and garden. | 0:06:20 | 0:06:25 | |
-They export their goods -around the world. | 0:06:25 | 0:06:29 | |
-They sold one table to someone -in the Bahamas recently. | 0:06:29 | 0:06:33 | |
-You run this quarry -with your brother, don't you? | 0:06:33 | 0:06:36 | |
-We bought this quarry in 1997. | 0:06:36 | 0:06:39 | |
-That's when the business started. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:45 | |
-We work -with slate and granite here. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:50 | |
-We make cornerstones -and various items. | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
-What's the biggest market for you? | 0:06:55 | 0:06:58 | |
-The market for granite cornerstones -and lintels... | 0:06:58 | 0:07:02 | |
-..has grown in the past two years. | 0:07:02 | 0:07:05 | |
-There's also a strong market -for Cwt y Bugail slate. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:10 | |
-It's another quarry which you manage. | 0:07:10 | 0:07:14 | |
-Yes, the quarry was closed -about two years ago. | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
-We started a business there as well -to keep it open. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:24 | |
-We felt it was important -to the area to keep it open. | 0:07:24 | 0:07:28 | |
-The area has strong links -with the quarrying industry. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
-It must be in your blood. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:34 | |
-It's quite strange, really. | 0:07:34 | 0:07:36 | |
-My paternal grandfather worked -in a quarry in Blaenau Ffestiniog. | 0:07:36 | 0:07:41 | |
-My maternal grandfather -was a farmer. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:45 | |
-It just so happens -that I split my time... | 0:07:45 | 0:07:48 | |
-..working as a farmer -and a quarryman. | 0:07:48 | 0:07:51 | |
-Is there anything I can do -to help you out? | 0:07:52 | 0:07:54 | |
-You can have a go -oiling this table. | 0:07:55 | 0:07:58 | |
-I've heard you're an expert -at oiling things! | 0:07:58 | 0:08:01 | |
-OK. | 0:08:01 | 0:08:03 | |
-You can make it look -clean and shiny. | 0:08:03 | 0:08:07 | |
-It's only linseed oil. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:10 | |
-Just wipe it over? | 0:08:11 | 0:08:13 | |
-Wipe it over and rub it in. | 0:08:13 | 0:08:15 | |
-This will be shining -in no time at all. | 0:08:15 | 0:08:19 | |
-Leave it with me. -It'll be done by the morning. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
-Come back tomorrow -and tell me what you think. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
-OK. Bye, Iolo. | 0:08:26 | 0:08:27 | |
-Bye now. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:30 | |
-There we are. | 0:08:30 | 0:08:31 | |
-My wife would be happy -to see me doing this. | 0:08:31 | 0:08:34 | |
-She'd still point out -the bits I've missed though! | 0:08:34 | 0:08:38 | |
-Yes, well, I might look silly -in these clothes... | 0:08:50 | 0:08:53 | |
-..but I'm meeting creatures -with a sting in their tail - bees. | 0:08:53 | 0:08:58 | |
-They can be quite dangerous -so every precaution must be taken. | 0:08:58 | 0:09:03 | |
-One woman who doesn't fear them is -Carys Wyn Edwards or Carys Tractors. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:11 | |
-How are you, Carys? | 0:09:11 | 0:09:13 | |
-OK, thanks. -Come and join me behind the beehive. | 0:09:13 | 0:09:17 | |
-Is it safe here? | 0:09:17 | 0:09:19 | |
-You can use the bellows -to control the bees. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:22 | |
-The smoke? | 0:09:22 | 0:09:25 | |
-Aim it at the bees. | 0:09:25 | 0:09:27 | |
-What does this do? | 0:09:27 | 0:09:28 | |
-What does this do? - -It calms them down. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:30 | |
-It medicates them. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:33 | |
-I'm checking to see -how much honey they've produced. | 0:09:33 | 0:09:37 | |
-It's a relatively poor season -this year. | 0:09:37 | 0:09:39 | |
-The bees are in good condition. -They look happy. | 0:09:40 | 0:09:45 | |
-When did you become interested -in bees and honey? | 0:09:45 | 0:09:49 | |
-The interest was passed down to me -by my uncle. | 0:09:50 | 0:09:53 | |
-Uncle Bob is 92 years old now. | 0:09:54 | 0:09:56 | |
-He taught me how to look after bees. | 0:09:56 | 0:10:00 | |
-Dear me. You look very confident -in your handling of them. | 0:10:00 | 0:10:04 | |
-You must be. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:07 | |
-If someone is nervous around them... | 0:10:07 | 0:10:10 | |
-..they can sense it right away. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:14 | |
-They can detect it. | 0:10:14 | 0:10:16 | |
-They'll be fine. -I'll close the beehive now. | 0:10:16 | 0:10:19 | |
-I feel relaxed because you're here. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:22 | |
-I need to replace the rock in case -a sheep knocks into the beehive. | 0:10:22 | 0:10:27 | |
-Years ago, my father had a horse... | 0:10:27 | 0:10:31 | |
-..which walked up to a beehive, -raised it hind legs... | 0:10:31 | 0:10:35 | |
-..and galloped away. | 0:10:35 | 0:10:37 | |
-We'll leave the beehive -as it is for today. | 0:10:37 | 0:10:40 | |
-You can show the way. I'm smoking -everything in front of me! | 0:10:40 | 0:10:45 | |
-I had to sample the produce -made by Carys's bees... | 0:10:48 | 0:10:52 | |
-..but not the honey. | 0:10:52 | 0:10:54 | |
-Here we are, Carys, cheers. | 0:10:55 | 0:10:56 | |
-Ganllwyd honey mead. | 0:11:03 | 0:11:05 | |
-Cheers. | 0:11:05 | 0:11:07 | |
-Mmm. Tasty. | 0:11:10 | 0:11:12 | |
-In Maentwrog, is located a splendid -mansion - Plas Tan y Bwlch. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:21 | |
-It was built by the Oakley family -in the 17th century. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
-Every time I visit Tan y Bwlch... | 0:11:25 | 0:11:27 | |
-..it's always busy. | 0:11:27 | 0:11:29 | |

-They wander around the gardens -and have a buffet. | 0:11:46 | 0:11:50 | |
-The food here is very nice. | 0:11:51 | 0:11:53 | |

-..and the other is a course on bats. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:14 | |
-That's being attended by people -who work in planning departments. | 0:12:14 | 0:12:19 | |
-When changes are made -to the use of buildings... | 0:12:20 | 0:12:23 | |
-..or architectural changes are made, -the legal side is important. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:28 | |
-The law safeguards -the welfare of bats. | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
-The more they know about that, -the better. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:36 | |
-As part of the course, -specialist sound equipment is used... | 0:12:37 | 0:12:43 | |
-..to help the students -locate the bats. | 0:12:43 | 0:12:47 | |
-Many pipistrelle bats were found -in the roof spaces that night. | 0:12:48 | 0:12:52 | |

-I've never been anywhere -I'd like to live more than here. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
-The horses love grazing -near the lake. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:27 | |
-It's their natural habitat. | 0:15:28 | 0:15:30 | |
-Eleri, did this area inspire you -to stay here... | 0:15:33 | 0:15:36 | |
-..and forge a career as a vet? | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
-Yes, I'd say so. -I was born and raised here. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:44 | |
-I know all the farmers around here. | 0:15:45 | 0:15:47 | |
-It was a natural step -to return here to live. | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
-I don't think I could find -a nicer place, as you can see. | 0:15:51 | 0:15:55 | |

-One of Trawsfynydd's most -renowned buildings... | 0:16:26 | 0:16:30 | |
-..is the nuclear power station. | 0:16:30 | 0:16:32 | |
-Today, for the first time ever, -I'm going inside. | 0:16:32 | 0:16:36 | |
-Believe it or not, -I need my passport. | 0:16:36 | 0:16:39 | |
-Safety is just as important -as it's ever been. | 0:16:40 | 0:16:44 | |
-Construction of the power station -began 50 years ago. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
-It's the UK's -only inland power station. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:52 | |
-Energy production ended in 1991 and -the site is now being decommissioned. | 0:16:52 | 0:16:57 | |

-I met Richard Foxhall, -one of the station's staff. | 0:17:04 | 0:17:08 | |
-The power station must have provided -a boost to the local economy... | 0:17:09 | 0:17:15 | |
-..in terms of constructing, managing -and decommissioning the site. | 0:17:15 | 0:17:21 | |
-Thousands of people -have worked here over the years. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:24 | |
-This year, we celebrate -the station's 50th anniversary. | 0:17:24 | 0:17:28 | |
-Construction began -on July 1st, 1959. | 0:17:28 | 0:17:30 | |

-Since it became operational -in 1963... | 0:17:35 | 0:17:39 | |
-..the station -has employed 650 staff. | 0:17:39 | 0:17:42 | |
-A large proportion live locally. | 0:17:42 | 0:17:44 | |
-We still employ over 600 people -on site. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |

-One building stands out -on the site... | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-..the new storage area which is -the same size as a football pitch. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:23 | |
-The medium level radioactive waste -will be stored here. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:28 | |
-This is the final part -of the whole process. | 0:18:28 | 0:18:31 | |
-The waste we've retrieved -is packaged safely and brought here. | 0:18:32 | 0:18:37 | |
-This is the first storage facility -of its kind in Britain. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:41 | |
-Plenty of work, lads? -You'll be here a while yet. | 0:18:41 | 0:18:44 | |
-We're all local lads. | 0:18:45 | 0:18:47 | |
-We'll be here for another 15 years. | 0:18:47 | 0:18:48 | |
-We'll be here for another 15 years. - -If we're lucky, if we're lucky. | 0:18:48 | 0:18:50 | |
-It's nice to hear so much Welsh -being spoken here. | 0:18:51 | 0:18:54 | |

-Thank you. It's been great. - -Fantastic. Step in. | 0:19:15 | 0:19:17 | |
-That American woman -says if it's safe to leave. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:21 | |

-The sheep you're shearing -is calm and stands still. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
-The odd one or two -will kick out sometimes... | 0:20:32 | 0:20:35 | |
-..but on the whole, -they're very good. | 0:20:35 | 0:20:38 | |
