llanllyr SOURCE's fascinating history
We bottled our first water only a few years ago in 1999, but behind our highly contemporary product there's a truly fascinating story that begins literally centuries ago!
We know the same sources have been providing drinking water for over 800 years because a Cistercian nunnery was established on the site in 1180 and it survived for over 400 years, The history of the site goes back much further than that though.
Saint Madomonoc is said to have established a hermitage on the site in the 6th century and indeed evidence remains there to this day which is a magnet for historians from all over the world.
