Photographic survey of Capel Celyn (Tryweryn), 1957 -65

"At the end of 1955 it was announced that Liverpool Corporation was intending to build a new reservoir in the Tryweryn valley, in order to meet the city's growing need for water. The plan was to erect a dam on the river Tryweryn, thus drowning the village of Capel Celyn, north of Bala."
