Carchar rhyfel i forwyr tanfor Almaeneg oedd yma. Roeddent yma i dorri a casglu y coed oedd ar stad Bryn Llowarch Isa, yn defnyddio Tramffordd y Ceri .Bu rhaid i'r dynion codi cytiau eu hynain ond roedd y swyddogion yn cael byw mewn cytiau pren.

This was a prisoner of war camp for German submariners. They were located here to cut and gather trees from the Lower Bryn Llowarch Estate using the Kerry tramway..The ratings had to build their own thatched huts, while the officers had wooden huts built for them.
