Hi 'Fish'
Mariamne was the much loved daughter of the family who died in her 20s - her father had a statue commissioned in the church but a subsequent fire damaged it badly. She was a keen botanist and there is a garden in the Hafod Uchtryd estate which used to be called Mariamne's Garden, but the web site now has it as Mrs Johnnes' Garden. Hafod means 'summer place'. Thanks for your comment.

Hi Chris - Good read. I've found something on Uchtryd's Summer Place (a part of Wales I once walked) but who is Mariamé?
Go well
