Mae CALCH yn atgyweirio rhai o’r adeiladwaithau sydd wedi goroesi yn Chwarel Herbert ac mae’n datblygu llwybrau hunan dywys o gwmpas y safle i annog ymwelwyr. Mae’r prosiect hefyd yn ymchwilio i hanes y diwydiant calch i ddarganfod a dathlu ei gysylltiadau â chymunedau lleol.

CALCH is repairing some of the surviving structures at Herbert’s Quarry and is developing self-guided trails around the site to encourage visitors. The project is also investigating the history of the lime industry to discover and celebrate its links with local communities.

Cloddiad naw dydd o hyd i ymchwilio olion pentref canoloesol anghyfannedd yn Llanismel, Glanyfferi, a ddechreuodd ar 6 Medi. Mae gwirfoddolwyr lleol yn gweithio gydag Ymddiriedolaeth Archeolegol Dyfed i gofnodi olion y tu mewn o un o’r adeiladau ac olion eraill ar hyd yr arfordir, sy’n cael ei erydu gan y mor. Y gobaith yw i benderfynu ar ddyddiad un o’r adeiladau, ei bwrpas a pham y cafodd ei adael. Mae’r gwaith yn cael ei ariannu gan Cadw.

A nine day excavation to investigate the remains of the deserted medieval village at St Ishmaels, Ferryside, started on September 6th. Local volunteers are working with the Dyfed Archaeological Trust to record the remains of the interior of one of the buildings and other remains along the coastline, which are being eroded by the sea. It is hoped to determine the dates of one of the buildings, its function and why it was abandoned. The work is being funded by Cadw.
