Think of Gwynedd and most Welsh Patriots will think of Welsh Princes and Wars of Independance but there is another history we ignore at our patriotic peril! Particularly at present as personally I am more and more of the oppinion that in these times it is the Peoples History of Struggle against Tyrrany and oppression that speaks more to us than the struggles of Medieval Princes who more often as not fought each other more than the Anglo - Norman Conquistadores.

Corn Riots often coincided with the struggle against Enclosures and the Resistance of small farmers and squatters 1793 - 1830, see book Before Rebecca by David Jones. However, note that there were enclosure disturbences going back to Tudor Times and Corn Riots were known to have taken place during the 18th Century in many parts of Wales. Though the years between 1793 - 1830 was the period of major popular Protests, Resistance and Riot bordering very much on open revolt but unlike Ireland never becoming an armed Rebellion for that Wales would have to wait untill 1831 and 1839.

In this post I will focus on Gwynedd which was as much to the fore in Peoples struggle as other parts of Wales, time we remembered that not least this coming Saturday in Caernarfon for which I suggest those attending make the following placard, the more the merrier as then it will really make a big point or two! Boom! Boom! Get it? You will once you see the below. See Pics below, too snowy and cold to go outside and take a photo, you will just have to make do with indoor shots. Details: I used a box some book shelves were packaged in, about 3' x 1', this made it possible for me to illustrate on both sides. I am also affixing thru the box a fishing rod which can be pulled out (note clip at top to keep in place). When put together and held up high, it will be seen for sure and if a load of them make great visual Agit - Prop Impact. Go to it, of course if as a child you watched Blue Peter all this will come easy to you. Y Urdd should produce a Mr Urdd Gonk holding a Red Pitch Fork? that gives me an idea, I will make my own Mr C.O.R.N Rebel Gonk. Coming your way soon!
