Llangeitho mewn lluniau
Digwydd bod yn Llangeitho y dydd o’r blaen, ac yn y pentrefan gerllaw, Capel Betws Lleucu. Pentref digon tawel yw Llangeitho heddiw, ac fe welais neb bron ar y strydoedd. Ond ganrif a hanner yn ôl roedd pethau’n wahanol: llawer mwy o bobl yn byw a gweithio yn yr ardal, llawer mwy o Gymraeg i’w […]
