Ffald Llanycrwys animal pound Ffald ynghlwm wrth fynwent Eglwys Llanycrwys. Byddai anifeiliaid crwydr yn cael eu corlannu yma hyd nes y bydd y perchennog yn talu dirwy er cael eu rhyddhau. Ceidwad y ffald oedd y bedel neu'r plwyfwas ac am ofalu a bwydo'r anifeiliaid derbynnai dal mas o'r ddirwy. Os na hawliwyd yr anifail fe'i gwerthid yn y farchnad leol a rhennid yr elw rhwng y plwyfwas ac arglwydd y faenor. Ar un adeg roedd gan bob plwyf ffald ac mae rhai ohonynt yn dyddio o'r 17g a'r 18g. Yn anffodus mae llawer ohonynt bellach wedi diflannu. An animal pound attached to Llanycrwys churchyard. Stray animals were impounded here until their owner paid a fine for their release. A beadle fed and looked after the animals and he was remunerated from the proceeds of the fine. If any animal was not claimed then it would be sold at the local market and the profits shared between the beadle and the lord of the manor. Every parish would have had an animal pound and most of them date from the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. Unfortunately, many of them have disappeared.
