Emlyn Arms Cerddwyr yn mynd heibio i Dafarn yr Emlyn Arms. Yn ystod Nadolig 1909 daeth y tafarn i sylw'r wlad am ddigwyddiad goruwchnaturiol wrth i boltergeist ymweld a'r lle gan greu anrhefn llwyr a gadael y bobl a'i gwelodd yn glwyfol tu hwnt. Walkers passing the Emlyn Arms. During Christmas 1909 the public house made national headlines by an event which could only be described as extraordinary. The premises was visited by a poltergeist which resulted in chaos and left those who witnessed the unearthly goings on highly traumatised.
