WELSH WARS, BATTLES AND  REBELLIONS FROM 616 TO 1409. ****IF YOU FIND MISTAKES LET ME KNOW. ****   There is an article on wiki called 'list of anglo Welsh wars" it doesn't cover most of the conflicts, battles, wars that involve the Welsh so iv always intended on adding to it, but for now, I decided to put as many as I can find in one place.  All I'm doing (doing because iv not finished) is searching through the lives of the Welsh princes, primary sources, secondary sources, various articles and adding whatever I can find and trust me, the list as easily five or six times bigger than the wiki list so far. There are many medieval writers who describe the Welsh as brave and vicious fighters who dont often stick by the rules of war. They would often come out of nowhere and attack an invading army and disappear before the invaders knew what hit them. quote from Itinerarium Cambriae 1191 "My Lord King, this nation may now be harassed, ...

Timeline of Viking Raids on the Welsh

-
The Viking attacks on the native Welsh is often overlooked for the better-recorded attacks and battles with the Saxons of England. The Viking raids on Saxon England is the subject of many documentaries and books. (probably 100s) Most of these don't even mention the natives of the islands, especially the Welsh.

I don't know where I got this but I do know  I didn't make it,  It is far more detailed than anything I could have done. so please don't credit me for it. If you know who did make this timeline then please let me know. Thank you. The Welsh suffered greatly from Viking attacks. A land already suffering extreme hardships suffered relentless attacks,  Viking Raids into Wales ·  795 AD  Some scholars believe that Viking incursions into Wales began in this year, suggesting that the Vikings who raided the Church on Recru or Lombay Island had sailed there from a ...

 ..........................the Welsh give the English a good hiding during the war of 1282, Luke de Tany, the nobles Roger de Clifford, Phillip and William Burnell (brothers of the chancellor Robert Burnell), sixteen English knights (and their esquires) and over 400 of Tany's men perished. The Welsh suffered few casualties, (Battle of the bridge of boats ). This victory, and the Battle of Llandeilo Fawr in which another English army was destroyed in South Wales, temporarily delayed Edward’s conquest . 2 significant battles with at least 3000 English souls perished and nobody in England has heard about them, wonder why ? The Welsh had a number of great victories against the Normans and English, when they decided to attack from the island, 🙂 One time they killed Henry firsts, two illegitimate sons he had with Nest . The English don't talk of this, either, do they ? 🙂
