Lampeter info
Lampeter (Welsh:
Llanbedr Pont Steffan) is a town in Ceredigion,
Wales, United Kingdom,
lying on the River Teifi, which meets the Irish
Sea at Cardigan.
Ceredigion was one of the Royal counties established
by Edward I after the defeat of Llywelyn the Last
(Llywelyn Ein Llyw Olaf) at Cilmeri in 1282 --
Lampeter fell under direct Royal Control. This
however had little effect on the culture of the
town, as the Welsh language and culture has continued
to thrive. The first Borough Charter was granted
in 1284 and successive charters allowed many markets
and fairs to be held in the wide Hight Street
until the 1930's. One of these fairs was the Dalis
Horse Fair.
The town is best known for the University of
Wales, Lampeter (formerly St David's University
College), originally founded in 1822 as a theological
college, and now a college of the University of
Wales, primarily awarding degrees in the liberal
arts. Its central building, based on an Oxbridge
quadrangle was completed in 1827, and was designed
by C. R. Cockerell. Its construction is recorded
as having cost £16,204 6s 7d.
The earliest reference to Lampeter is believed
to be 1187, when Owain Gwynedd destroyed the King's
castle of Pont Steffan ('Stephen's Bridge' in
Welsh). The remains of this castle later became
the foundations for C. R. Cockerell's college
building, and still form part of the university
campus.
Lampeter and its surroundings are home to a theatre,
a museum and a number of locally owned shops.
