At Newport Petty Sessions on 17th May 1933, Benjamin Davies was charged for driving his ‘pedal cycle furiously on Newport & Cardigan Road’. The case was dismissed, but whoever compiled the case notes also had time to do a bit of doodling! #EYATravel #BikeWeek

Dyma hanes achos a glywyd yn sesiynau chwarter yr Ystwyll ym 1780 ym Mathri a Threletert. Mae’n sôn am dalu saith swllt a chwe cheiniog ar gyfer llogi ceffylau a 10 swllt ar gyfer taith y goruchwyliwr. #EYATravel

Ym 1942, pasiwyd mesur a oedd yn rhoi’r pŵer i Gyngor Sir Penfro sefydlu llong fferi ar draws Aberdaugleddau rhwng Hobbs Point a Neyland. Dyma gynlluniau o 1962 i 1963 o’r llong Cleddau King, a fu’n cludo teithwyr o un glan o’r aber i’r llall. #EYATravel

100 mlynedd yn ôl, cafwyd adroddiad yn y Western Telegraph am lo heffer â phum coes. Bydd yn rhaid i ni gymryd eu gair nhw am y llo oherwydd mae’r ffotograff wedi pylu cryn dipyn, yn anffodus. #EYANature

100 years ago, the Western Telegraph reported the existence of a five-legged heifer calf. We’ll have to take their word for it because the photograph is unfortunately very faded. #EYANature
