Ar Geinioga'

By Manon Wyn Williams

1884. Owain Glyndŵr's wish five hundred years earlier to establish two Universities in Wales - one in the south and the other in the north - was realised and the doors of North Wales University College were opened for the first time in the old Penrhyn Arms hotel in Bangor. 

At the helm was a young twenty seven year old Irishman. He devoted his life to the work of the university for over forty years, embracing the Welsh life and culture around him. He, more than any other man, was responsible for the growth and development of the organization as well as leading it through many storms.

Harry Reichel, the first Headmaster of Coleg y Gogledd, tells the story of the establishment of the university on the meager pennies of the area's quarries and farmers.

Actor - Llion Williams
