Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Site of first Welsh printing press A spot between two houses facing the bridge has been chosen for the commemoration of Isaac Carter's initiative in bringing printing to Wales. He was a printer from Shrewsbury who briefly worked in Adpar, then know as Trehedyn, before moving his press to Carmarthen. In 1718 his first book, printed here, was said to be a ballad about smoking - Can O Senn Iw Hen Feistr Tobacco (A Song Of Rebuke To His Old Master Tobacco).
