Following on the assassination of Llywelyn III in 1282 and execution of Dafydd III in 1283, Edward I in 1284 held a Parliament at Rhuddlan which delivered the Statutes of Rhuddlan. In the same year work began on his great castles of Conquest, including the Castle of Caernarfon. On 1 AWST 1284 Edward held a great celebration of Conquest at Nefyn in a field which has since become known as Edward's Field. For further information check out web site below and other sources on the web, I post below photos which will further identify the location of Edwards Field. Do note you can gain access to walk across via a public foot path Gate, see web maps for exact details of location and all footpaths.

To locate footpath first locate Capel Seion - B near the former St Mary's Church/Maritime Museum, note Car Park. Look for street sign STRYD Y PLAS and there over the fence is Edward's Field and close by the footpath sign post which leads you on to the field, check out web for route & distance of Footpath. The idea being that as from 1 Awst 2009 patriots take a walk across the field with Baneri Llywelyn & Glyndwr, just to make the point ''Yma o Hyd''. Further, another possibility, as 1 Awst 2009 is a Saturday, is to hold a Patriotic Parade/Walk along the path into Edward's Field with as many Baneri Cymru Rydd as possible plus Banners and Placards declaring COFIWN 1282, COFIWN 1283 and COFIWN 1284. Not least Poster Placards calling for Welsh Independence, and of course NO MORE ENGLISH PRINCES OF WALES, whatever, wonderful chance for a great Radical Nationalist Assembly with great significant and symbolic purpose. All this may include a Patriotic Picnic during the afternoon and possibly an evening of Patriotic entertainment at Tafarn Bryn Cynan under the imposing Mynydd Garn Boduon, indeed the fittest of patriots may want to walk atop Garn Boduon to rise up Baneri Cymru Rydd. However, I think it all needs some local organisation otherwise Patriots from other parts could do so informally, it's up to you. Shame to miss opportunity to score some propaganda points against the Brits, why not a Gwyl 'Yma o Hyd', Nefyn 2009, maybe such could then become an annual festival?
