Ein Hanes Talk
NEW YORK to LONDON via ABERMAWR
Speaker: Stephen K. Jones
Railways and the telegraph were the great achievements of the Victorian era, and Abermawr witnessed both their unfulfilled promise and success. Steamships, namely the world’s largest ship, also figure in this story of the Atlantic Telegraph Cable and the proposed western terminus of Brunel’s South Wales Railway in Pembrokeshire.

Y rheilffyrdd a'r telegraff oedd prif ddyfeisiadau oes Fictoria. Mae gydag Abermawr gysylltiad â’r ddau. Yn y stori hon hefyd ceir llong fwyaf y byd, hanes y Cebl Telegraff Traws-Iwerydd a therfynfa orllewinol arfaethedig Brunel ar gyfer Rheilffordd De Cymru yn Sir Benfro.
