IIH HISTORY OK 



(jMcintities of'hsli are frequently captured ; the vicar 

 of Llandrillo and the bishop of St. Asaph have 

 every tenth tide between them. An exclusive 

 grant of all the fisheries along this coast, below the 

 commot of Isdulas, was made to Morgan ab John 

 ab David, of Maesegwig, an ancestor of the pre- 

 sent proprietor, Thomas Parry, Esq. of Rhosvyn- 

 ach, by the great earl of Leicester, who had the 

 lordship of Denbigh. This indenture is dated the 

 30th of June, 17th of Elizabeth. Near the wear on 

 the shore is a small structure called Capel Trillo, 

 or St. Trillo's chapel, the saint to whom the church 

 is dedicated ; its form is oblong, with a small 

 window, or rather loop hole, in each side, and at 

 the end, a very small doorway, and a stone roof; 

 Avithin is a well of excellent water : this building is 

 generally supposed to have been a chapel, where 

 prayers were offered for success in fishing. I am 

 more inclined however to agree with another sug- 

 gestion, that it was built merely to preserve the 

 well, which is the only one in the neighbourhood ; 

 it is too small for a chapel, being only eleven feet 

 long, by eight wide. In the church, near the altar 

 is a tomb stone with the following inscription in 

 Saxon letters, HIC lACET DNS: EDNEVED:
