EDITORS COMMENTS
A hauntingly beautiful image of a Celtic cross standing proudly in the lush grounds of Carew Castle in Pembrokeshire, South Wales. The cross, a poignant memorial to Mareddud ap Edwin, serves as a testament to the rich history and royal lineage of this region. Mareddud ap Edwin, a joint ruler of the ancient kingdom of Deheubarth in South West Wales during the 11th century, met his untimely end in battle in 1035. The cross, believed to be erected in his memory, is a poignant reminder of the noble and complex history of this land and its people. Carew Castle, a magnificent 13th-century fortress, looms in the background, its imposing walls and towers a testament to the power and influence of the rulers who once called it home. The castle, located in the county of Dyfed, has long been a source of fascination for historians and visitors alike, offering a glimpse into the past and the lives of the royals who once ruled this land. The intricately carved Celtic cross, with its ornate designs and symbolic motifs, is a visual feast for the eyes, transporting us back in time to an era of chivalry, courage, and tradition. The image, captured in 1889, offers a rare and precious glimpse into the past, a time when the world moved at a slower pace and the natural beauty of the landscape was a source of inspiration and wonder. As we stand in awe of this magnificent cross, we cannot help but be moved by the rich tapestry of history that surrounds us, a testament to the enduring legacy of the people and the land of Pembrokeshire, Wales.
