Pembrokeshire pubs – history through the bottom of a beer glass

Speaker: Keith Johnson

We are assured of an entertaining evening when our speaker, author, and former editor of the late, and much loved, Pembrokeshire Life magazine, takes us on a virtual pub crawl, visiting several hostelries in the county, past and present.

Keith Johnson will reflect on historic opportunities and barriers to the trade, and on the various roles that the public house has played within our communities.

Y stori bwerus na chafodd ei hadrodd gan Shakespeare, ond a ysbrydolodd un o’i gampweithiau mwyaf.

Ar ôl marwolaeth drasig eu mab, mae Agnes a William Shakespeare (Jessie Buckley a Paul Mescal) yn ymdopi â'u galar. Wrth i Agnes frwydro i ddod i delerau â'u colled, mae Shakespeare yn sianelu ei dristwch a’i gariad i'w ysgrifennu.

Hefyd yn serennu Emily Watson a Joe Alwyn.
