A classic old South Wales legend today as Calan Gaeaf is just around the corner. In 1890 the Morfa Pit disaster sent echoes of death all around the industrial towns of Glamorgan and soon tales of a ghostly hound seen just before the disaster started to spread. I have its tale just for you at the Firepit at the heart of the forest.

Enjoy my friends

I love nothing more than an old Welsh folktale from the age of Saints and this is one of my Favourites . From the depths of West Wales comes an incredible old tale based around the standing Stone of Maen Pumsaint in the village of Pumsaint . The tale tells of the miracle that happened when five saints came together and prayed. I really hope you enjoy it.

Time between Times returns with a new season on September 19th .
