Bridell ((ウェールズ語:Y Bridell)) is a hamlet (place) and also a parish in Pembrokeshire, Wales, situated in the north of the county. The parish includes the village of Pen-y-bryn. Together with the parishes of Cilgerran and Llantood, it constitutes the community of Cilgerran. ==Bridell Parish== The hamlet of Bridell is situated on the A478, south of Cardigan and consists of a few private houses, the church (St David's) and Plas Bridell Manor house, a 19th-century mansion which is now a nursing home. The derivation of the parish name is obscure. Lying on the western border of the cantref of Emlyn, it has always been essentially Welsh-speaking. In the churchyard of St David's is a high stone cross whose inscription is no longer readable. The parish area was estimated at in 1844 with a population of 404.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/PEM/Bridell/index.html )〕 Official census figures were: 248 (1801): 335 (1851): 237 (1901): 220 (1951): 221 (1981) with the proportion of Welsh speakers 94% (1891), 90% (1931) and 51% (1971). In 1890, local clergy were reported to be in ''"great distress"'' through the failure to collect tithes amounting to £1,738 over six parishes, with Bridell owed £249; previous attempts at recovery had been ''"crushed by riotous crowds"''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bridell」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
