"Up to the Second World War the Nant supported a thriving, closely knit Welsh community depending for its existence on a granite quarrying industry which exported its whares, from the small pier, to different parts of the world. The war came, the industry declined and the inhabitants left, one by one, leaving behind a deserted village. Today Nantgwrtheyrn is being rediscovered and the village is to become a centre for the teaching of the Welsh language."
