Walking with History
Walking with History, a guide to walks in Gwaenysgor and Trelawnyd was written by Roger Hadley, who was an enthusiastic member of the group until his death in 2001. It was published in 2000 to accompany the establishment of the Millennium Trail, which was created with a grant to the Trelawnyd & Gwaenysgor Community Council.
The Gwaenysgor Conservation Group took responsibility for work on the walks in this parish. The Millennium Trail was opened by Sir Dafydd Elis Thomas in January 2001. Roger Hadley was also the author of a history of the village entitled On Common Land: an Exploration of the History of a North Wales Village from 1850 to 2000, which was published in 2003. The blurb on the dust cover says:
"Well illustrated, rich in detail, full of characters and controversy, the book is both a good read and a doorway into the past of our grandparents and great-grandparents.”
