TWO people from Gwent will be honoured by the Gorsedd of the Bards at this year’s National Eisteddfod in Wrexham.
One of them will be an honorary druid for a ceremony on the Eisteddfod Maes on August 5.
The 2010 Eisteddfod executive chairman, Richard Davies, from Cwm, will take his position in the ceremony.
For his work promoting the Welsh language in Gwent and help on the Blaenau Gwent Eisteddfod, held in Ebbw Vale last summer, Abergavenny’s Frank Olding will receive an honorary Ovate at this year’s festival.
