TYDDYN IOLYN

Tyddyn Iolyn is believed to date back to the 16th century and research so far has produced the names of the occupants back to 1687 from the land tax records and materials researched at the archives in Caernarfon... Situated in the village of Pentrefelin (mill village), the farmhouse is in the parish of the old church (yr hen eglwys) of Ynyscynhaearn.
