| Disgrifiad | This bundle of correspondence discusses the moving of the Friars’ School site from its current location in 1864 to a new location at Ffriddoedd. The correspondence discuss the developments in this proposed move, beginning with the Governors of the School making a formal application to Lord Penrhyn asking him if he would purchase the land at Friars and sell 6/8 acres at Ffriddoedd for the purpose of building the school.
