Compact Wales: On the Trail of the Welsh Drovers
Disgrifiad Saesneg / English Description: Before the coming of the railways the only method of moving cattle, sheep and even geese to distant markets was to walk them. The drovers were the men who undertook that task; an occupation which required toughness, considerable skill in handling people and animals, and a good business head. Disgrifiad Cymraeg / Welsh Description: Cyn dyfodiad y rheilffyrdd, yr unig ddull o symud gwartheg, defaid a gwyddau i farchnadoedd oedd eu cerdded. Y porthmyn a gyflawnai'r dasg hon; galwedigaeth a ofynnai am wytnwch, dawn trafod pobl ac anifeiliaid, a phen busnes da.
