Elfrida and Braich y Celyn
There's a house just to the east of Aberdyfi called Braich y Celyn, and legend has it that a Welsh chieftain installed his daughter, Elfrida, in this house as part of his plan to fool the sea captain who had been sent to investigate his association with smuggling activities. Unfortunately, Elfrida and the sea captain fell in love, and were in the very act of being married in secret at the house when the father appeared via a secret tunnel and, in his fury, had them walled up alive. The double wall still remains, we are told, and apparently many years ago some bones and a gold ring were found in the wall. It is also said that the secret tunnel actually exists, linking Braich y Celyn with Trefri, an imposing house built down at the water's edge on the Dyfi estuary.
The Trefri Ghost
There's a story that a ghost was causing trouble at the house, as they do from time to time, and things got to such a bad state that something had to be done about it. A local man who knew about such things was called in and eventually the ghost was captured in a bottle which was taken some distance from the house and buried in a stream above Yr Hen Felin, a nearby mill, as its name suggests. Just don't you go uncorking any bottles in the vicinity, or you never know what the consequences might be.
