BRAN AND THE BEES

The beautiful Mabinogion contains many pieces of Welsh narrative prose. It was originally compiled in the 11th and 12th centuries. One of the stories relates to the mythical giant Bran, who is reportedly buried in Twmbarlwm (near modern Newport) . There, amidst a huge hoard of gold, Bran awaits, Arthur like, a call to return at our time of greatest need.

According to legend, Brian’s resting place and treasure are defended by a fierce battalion of bees who have variously fought off grave robbers and an army of disrespectful wasps according to local legend
