About Llywelyn Bren
Llywelyn Bren, or Llywelyn ap Gruffudd ap Rhys or in English: Llywelyn of the Woods. He was a nobleman who led a 1316 revolt in Wales against the English. It marked the last serious challenge to English rule in Wales until the attempts of Owain Lawgoch to invade with French support in the 1370s. Hugh Despenser the Younger's reputedly unlawful execution of Llywelyn Bren helped to lead to the eventual overthrow of both Edward II and Hugh.
