COFIWCH DRYWERYN - T-Shirt "fitted"

Cofiwch Dryweryn. Remember Tryweryn.

In July 1957, following parliamentary approval, Liverpool City Council pursued the flooding of the Tryweryn Valley without the consent of Welsh authorities and against the wishes of most Welsh Members of Parliament. Despite protests in Liverpool, London, and Wales, the valley was flooded in 1965 — and several centuries-old communities, including Capel Celyn, were lost forever.

In 1962, Meic Stephens — father of BBC Radio DJ Huw, and a Welsh author and scholar — painted "Cofiwch Tryweryn" onto a rock on a ruined cottage wall named Troed-y-Rhiw. He drove around Wales with his friend Rodric Evans to find the right spot, then spent fifteen to twenty minutes painting the message that would endure for generations. Later restorations corrected the grammar, adding the consonant mutation: T becoming D. Cofiwch Dryweryn.

Wear it. Remember it. Diolch. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿
