Siarter Ystrad Marchell rhif 15 / Ystrad Marchell charter no. 15

Confirmation of gift of lands and other property to the abbey of Strata Marcella (Ystrad Marchell) by Elisau son of Madog.

Helisse son of Madoc, moved by piety, has given and confirmed to God, the Blessed Mary and the convent of Stratmarcell in pure and perpetual alms all pasturage in the province of Penllin, from the river called Dwer anudon to Hedeirniaun, and in breadth from the river called Geiru to the Berrwin Mountain, well and peaceably, freely and quietly, fully, entirely and honourably. He has given the said pasturage especially to the above mentioned monks for their own use, so that it be not lawful for any others to posses the same pastures either through purchase or gift. Something greater and dearer to him has he given to them, namely, his body to be buried and, after his death, one third of all his property, both in cattle and in all his other household furniture. These gifts were given and confirmed at Bala into the hand of Abbot Gruffydd before witnesses (named) the second year after the death of his brother Gruffydd when he first became possessed of the said province.
