The legacy of the Rebecca Riots has just as much relevance today as it did in 1839, said Hywel Teifi Edwards during a talk at Llanboidy Village Hall. In his passionate talk about the characters of the riots, the hero's and villains, Hywel Teifi Edwards pointed out that it is important to remember and celebrate our history by continuing in our literary traditions. Brian John has recently done just that and was present to tell us about his new book the fourth in his 'Angel Mountain' saga, 'Rebecca and the Angels' a fictional depiction of life at the time of the riots portraying the reasons why people became involved in the revolt. Enthralling extracts from the book were read by Lis Evans, which described the meetings in the build up to the riots and the consequences suffered by those who took part. Llanboidy Village Hall proved an excellent venue for the evening. Llanboidy has great relevance to riots as Muriel Bowen Evans pointed out in her introduction, the Maesgwynne Gate was the second to be destroyed, after Efailwen, on June 15 1839 during the original disturbances. The Bro Beca Project was delighted to host the evening of Rebecca would like to thank Hywel Teifi Edwards, Brian John, Lis Evans and Muriel Bowen Evans for their wonderful presentations and continued support for the Bro Beca Project. • The Bro Beca Project is funded by EU European EAGGF Objective 1 and is based at PLANED in Narberth.
