CYMRWCH Y TIR YN OL/TAKE BACK THE LAND. Campaigning Against an Old Conquest and a New Conquest of Wales by Means of Cheque ...
Regards proposed plaque below, I am trying to think of a Universal Place to suit the whole Corn Riots, possibly Dowlais/Merthyr in respect of the two Martyrs hanged and another at Caernarfon 'Yn Cymreag' where two Workers lost their lives, one shot and one lynched. If anyone wants to help in anyway get in touch with me or/and set up local Radical Heritage Groups to carry out such work or join existing local groups as in Llanelli which does put up 'Peoples History Plaques', indeed we could initiate a pressure campaign and request supporters to work with their local civic trusts to get such plaques up. See below useful Information to assist in this direction and if seeking further useful Information do contact.

In Conclusion
Red Plaques instead of Blue Plaques might be a good idea, if we had a 'Cofiwn Goch' to carry out such an Initiative.
