The Battle

History & Significance

The last contemporary records mentioning Owain Glyndwr as active date to around 1415. He is believed to have lived in hiding with his daughters in Herefordshire or Monmouthshire after the revolt collapsed. Henry V pardon offers are rejected through intermediaries. Glyndwr fate and place of death remain unknown, allowing him to pass into legend as Wales last native Prince.
