CAVES
(p307)
“OGOF MORRIS (MORRIS’S CAVE).
Near Tre’rddol in North Cardiganshire, there is a cave known as Ogof Morris. According to a tradition I heard in the neighbourhood, this Morris was a notorious robber who lived in this cave, and went about to steal hens and sheep; but at last he was caught and hanged at Cardigan.”
From ‘Folk-Lore of West and Mid-Wales’ by J. Ceredig Davies (1911).
