Pontrhydfendigaid

Small village in Ceredigion (Cardiganshire), central Wales, 20 km/12 mi southeast of Aberystwyth. Nearby are the ruins of a large, 12th-century Cistercian abbey, Strata Florida or Ystrad Fflur.

It was founded in 1164, and later damaged during the wars of Edward I (1294). A west portal in the transitional Norman-English style (12th century) remains, and the foundations and some interesting tiles have been excavated.
