One of Barmouth's most intriguing and legendery characters was 'the blind harpist', Dafydd Roberts.
I met up with local musician Chris Knowles who actually has his Celtic harp, bought at auction. He played a composition by Roberts himself called 'Ar y traeth yn Bermo', 'On the beach in Barmouth'.
How appropriate!
