Noel Thomas: Postmaster ‘couldn’t be prouder’ at top Welsh honour

The honours are handed out annually at the National Eisteddfod to recognise those that have made a “special contribution to Wales, our language and their local communities all over Wales”.

Dating back to 1792, the Gorsedd first became officially associated with the National Eisteddfod at the beginning of the 19th Century, when it was held in the Ivy Bush Inn, Carmarthen.

Members are present on stage during three of the main Eisteddfod ceremonies – dressed in their white, blue and green robes and led by the Archdruid.

Previous inductees include singer Bryn Terfel, actors Ioan Gruffudd and Matthew Rhys, former royal harpist Catrin Finch and ex-Welsh rugby stars Gareth Edwards, Ken Owens and Jonathan Davies.
