The story of Cantre’r Gwaelod

KASIA Hei! Who’s heard the story of Cantre’r Gwaelod?

It’s a great story!

CARTER But very sad.

IZZIE And scary.

ELIN I haven’t heard the story.

KASIA Do you want to hear the story, Elin?

ELIN Errr… Ok.

KASIA Once upon a time, there was a beautiful place in the west of Wales, called Cantre’r Gwaelod.

CARTER The people were very happy and grew all kinds of food on the land.

IZZIE They built strong walls around Cantre’r Gwaelod. There were big gates to stop the sea from flooding in.

KASIA One day, king Gwyddno had a fantastic party.

CARTER But the man who looked after the gates had fallen asleep.

IZZIE The sea came in through the gates and the land was drowned.

KASIA If you’re in Aberdyfi on a Sunday morning…

CARTER …and you listen carefully, they say you can hear Cantre’r Gwaelod’s bells ringing from under the sea…

KASIA/IZZIE/CARTER Can you hear the bells? Can you hear the bells?

KASIA What was that?

KASIA/IZZIE/CARTER Bells!

ELIN Oh, Gel!
