In the 12th century, the Prince of Gwynedd finds his son& #39;s cradle upended, his faithful hound drenched in blood.

Slaying the dog, a cry rings out – his baby is alive, hidden by the body of a fallen wolf.

Llywelyn Fawr is overcome with remorse.
He never smiles again.

In reality, the current "tomb" was a late 1700s marketing ploy by the proprietor of the nearby Goat Hotel, who attached the legend to the grave site to encourage tourism.

It& #39;s now accepted that Beddgelert took its name from a 7th century saint, rather than the dog.

Saint Celer was a hermit. He lived in a cave near Ffynnon Geler (the Holy Well of St Celer), Plasgeler.

The well was renowned for its healing properties, and was said to be visited by "such a concourse of people that no fair in Wales can equal it in multitude."
