New heritage group to launch at Christmas festival

At its second meeting, in September, the newly-formed Our Historic Llangollen/Hanesyddol I bawb agreed to publicly launch its existence by taking part in the town's annual Christmas festival on Saturday November 30.

The co-operative group of heritage sites and projects will take part in the stalls and events during the festival.

Spokesperson Sue Hargreaves said: "We will be having a stall on Centenary Square specifically devoted to Our Historic Llangollen/Hanesyddol I bawb  -abbreviated for convenience to OHLlHib - with new leaflets in Welsh and English giving a brief summary and illustration of each of the key heritage sites in Llangollen.

"We will also have available any current leaflets, posters and fliers from our member organisations. 

"We hope that a number of our member heritage sites in the town centre will be open, with tours and talks, information sessions or story-telling.

"We will compile these into a programme, ensuring that people can progress from one site to another without timing clashes."

Sue added: "Our Historic Llangollen/Hanesyddol I bawb is assisted in this initiative by grant-aid from the Clwydian Range and Dee Valley National Landscape Sustainable Development Fund. 

"This funding will also support the creation of an OHLlHib logo to aid developing a recognisable brand for Llangollen’s historic sites, and the development of a sharing of resources, information and co-operative initiatives going forward into 2025."
