Q4871831




The Battle of Mynydd Hyddgen took place between the Welsh and English in June 1401. It was the first major victory by Owain Glyndŵr of the Welsh Revolt of 1400–1409. Its location was on the western slopes of Plynlimon, near the Ceredigion/Powys boundary. Glyndŵr, defending with a much smaller force, routed an attack of English and Flemish settlers and soldiers at a site on or close to Mynydd Hyddgen, a peak in the Ceredigion uplands.
