Folklore

There are two large carneddau on the Carno mountain, where a sanguinary battle was fought between Ethelbald King of Mercia and Roderic Molwynog, a prince of North Wales, in which the latter is said to have been victorious. This bit of legend is offered in 'A topographical dictionary of Wales v1' by Samuel Lewis (1833). Rhiannon Posted by Rhiannon
