It is with regret and sadness that I have to relay the passing of Glyn Davies (Maeslyn).

Cynhelir angladd Glyn Davies Maesllyn Tregaron yn gyhoeddus yn Eglwys Ystrad Fflur Pontrhydfendigaid Ceredigion am 1 o’r gloch ddydd Llun Gorffennaf 13eg . Gwasanaeth preifat i ddilyn yn yr Amlosgfa Aberystwyth.

The funeral service for Glyn Davies Maesllyn Tregaron will be held in Strata Florida Church Pontrhydfendigaid at 1pm Monday 13th July. The service will be public in the church followed by a private service in Aberystwyth Crematorium.

The family have requested no flowers. Donations will be gratefully received through the hands of the undertaker in aid of the Cardiac Unit Bronglais Hospital.

Glyn will probably be best known as the owner of the field that hosts the Tregaron Festival – it was his foresight that saw three fields knocked into one to create a proper half mile oval surrounded by his beloved Welsh hills.
He was of course far more than that, he was first of all a true horseman, brought up driving the family milk float delivering milk in Tregaron, a farmer, a breeder, a keen follower of hounds and a true supporter of harness racing not only in Wales, Britain and Ireland but all over the world. He had visited the United States, New Zealand, France, Switzerland and Sweden to watch a sport he loved. I would often ring him asking him if he fancied a trip, the following morning – on being picked up at the end of the lane his first question would be – “Where are we off today then?” It would invariably involve harness racing somewhere whether by car or lorry.
