I am a composer looking for texts concerning the 'Welsh Not' for a series of works that I intend writing. I am Welsh but do not speak Welsh, although I expect to compose the pieces in Welsh. Can anyone point me to sources - English or Welsh - that I can investigate? I am hoping to find snippets, graffiti, etc. written by contemporary people during the nineteenth century, so that they are personal reflections, not comments by historians written at a later date.

Question:
Please can you e-mail me any available history and dates of operation of the horse race track at Caerphilly? I have a pre-WWII race card and would like to know more.
Thanks & regards,
Tony Rampton.
Answer:
It looks as though Bargoed Library is the main centre for local history in the Caerphilly area and you might contact them first, as they should be able to direct you to other sources: Church Place, Bargoed CF81 8RP. See also:
