Happy Folklore Friday, everyone! 🌊

This week we're talking about one of my favourite Welsh legends, Cantre'r Gwaelod, the lost kingdom beneath the sea.

The story goes that there was once a great fertile land off the coast of what's now Cardigan Bay, protected from the ocean by a series of dykes and sluice gates. It was rich and green and full of life. But one night, whether through negligence or something worse depending on which version you hear, the gates were left unguarded, and the sea rushed in. The whole kingdom was swallowed before morning.

What makes this legend linger is the detail that stays with people long after they first hear it. On still nights, when the water is calm, you can supposedly hear the bells of Cantre'r Gwaelod's churches ringing up through the waves. There's something in that image that never quite lets go of you. 🔔

Do you have a favourite legend about a lost or hidden place? I'd love to hear it in the comments.
