Pentwyn Deintyr

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Pentwyn Deintyr is a small Welsh community between Quakers Yard and Nelson, Caerphilly. The name Pentwyn Deintyr (top of the hill tenterhooks) is a link with the early woollen industry in the district. The name originates where 'tenterhooks' were used in the process of stretching the wool.
