The Practical Islander
Dyma ddetholiad o ddarnau sy'n adrodd hanes bywyd R. M. (Ronald) Lockley, yn ei eiriau ei hun. Mae'r pwyslais yn bennaf ar hanes a ffermio, ond mae'r cyfan yn troi o gwmpas bywyd ar ynys.

Brass Bands of the British Isles 1800-2018 - a historical directory
Of the many brass bands that have flourished in Britain and Ireland over the last 200 years very few have documented records covering their history.

Over 19,600 bands are recorded here, with some 10,600 additional cross references for alternative or previous names. This volume supersedes the earlier “British Brass Bands – a Historical Directory” (2016) and includes some 1,400 bands from the island of Ireland. A separate work is in preparation covering brass bands beyond the British Isles. A separate appendix lists the brass bands in each county
