Nowhere near the A470 of course, but such a prestigeous venue!
And such lovely people, Pedr ap Llwyd, the librarian (National Librarian, I suppose!), said
it was an amazing, warm, friendly, enriching event and the book is a treasure trove of excellent verse.
and then there was such a gorgeous view over the town and the sea!

Did you hear the coverage on the book on Classic FM and on BBC6 Music?
And see the coverage in the Guardian?
