The Legend of Beddgelert (Welsh Wolfhound)

About this episode

Ever since my friend, Mr. Evan Olwell sent me this story, I haven't been able to get it out of my head. It's haunting really. He sent me a video from the criminally underrated YouTube Channel: Jake Evans Storyteller. Here is the video so you can show him some support. A short walk south of the village, following the footpath along the banks of the Glaslyn leads to Beddgelert's most famous historical feature; 'Gelert's Grave'. According to legend, the stone monument in the field marks the resting place of 'Gelert', the faithful hound of the medieval Welsh Prince Llewelyn the Great. I also tell the story of Greyfriars Bobby as an afterthought. I've been meaning to tell that legend for a long time.
