This Page and related sub-pages are currently being created as part of the Penarth Town Heritage Trail Project. Please follow the main page and public announcements for updates.

Mae gan Dref Penarth lawer o bobl enwog a thirnodau/adeiladau yn gysylltiedig ag ef, ond dim llawer ohonyntPlaciau Glasmewn cydnabyddiaeth o honynt. Mewn gwirionedd dim ond un plac glas sydd ganddo, yn ogystal â dau blac di-las sy’n adnabod rhai o Benarthiaid adnabyddus (mae un ohonynt ar y tŷ anghywir!)

​

Rhan o Gam un y prosiect yw cynyddu'r nifer hwn. Un o feini prawf allweddol hyn fodd bynnag yw, er bod nifer o bobl nodedig ac adnabyddadwy y gellid eu hanrhydeddu gan un, mae yna hefyd nifer o bobl 'gyffredin' y gellid efallai eu cynnwys hefyd.

​

Mae enghreifftiau yn cynnwys Docwyr, Bydwragedd, Trimwyr Glo a mwy. Gyda chymaint o bobl heb eu cydnabod yn helpu i wneud y dref yr hyn y mae wedi dod, hoffem ddangos rhywfaint o werthfawrogiad iddynt hefyd.

Y Meini Prawf ar gyfer cael eich cynnwys ar y rhestr Plac Glas yw:

  1. Rhaid eu bod yn farw

  2. Rhaid bod yn ddiddorol

  3. Rhaid bod wedi byw neu weithio yn y dref ar safle sy'n dal i fodoli (felly rydyn ni'n gosod y plac)

Byrddau Gwybodaeth

Mae'r canlynol yn rhestr o ymgeiswyr posibl ar gyfer Placiau Glas. Lle na roddir enw rydym yn chwilio am rywun o'r proffesiwn hwnnw y gellid ei gynnwys. Gellir ystyried ymgeiswyr nodedig eraill o broffesiynau eraill hefyd. Y nod yma yw nid yn unig tynnu sylw at yr unigolion mwyaf adnabyddus, ond hefyd y rhai a gafodd ddylanwad da dros y dref.
