TitleDetermination of the boundary between the parishes of Penrhoslligwy and Llanfihangel Tre'r Beirdd (perambulation of 23 February 1844)
DescriptionAccording to a declaration by Griffith Edwards if Bodafon there was a perambulation “38 to 48 years” before that date, when two old men walked “on part” of the respective parishes, Henry Roberts born at Tyddyn-y-waun for Penrhoslligwy, and Lewis Jones of Ty Mawr for Llanfihangel, Griffith Edwards adding that he himself was the only person then alive (in 1844) who had walked the boundary with the two ancient men. The evidence of John Pritchard does not quite tally with that of Griffith Edwards, and adds the piquant news that a person who enclosed a garden “within that line of Boundary” saw his fences scattered without any legal proceedings being subsequently taken (this would be about 1823). There follow the names of ten persons who “walked” the boundary in 1844. Accompanying this document are two maps (LLIG/761) or plans in illustration, and in addition (LLIG/762) a plan of the parish boundary over Bodafon Mountain as walked by the Court Leet on 11 August, 1882
Date23 February, 1844
