Photograph by Geoff Charles, 1953. Source: Llyfrgell Genedlaethol Cymru/National Library of Wales.

Images of Mr Pugh of Cwm Siencyn who discovered an old sword whilst plowing and left it in a farm building and of schoolboy Brian Goulding with his mother, who had later discovered the sword and taken it to Trefyclawdd Grammar School. The sword was then sent to the British Museum where it was dated to 1370-1420.
