GWRON Y BERMO

Description

In the sea battle off Zeebrugge, the British suffered 583 casualties and the Germans 24. Ultimately, the raid failed as the Germans re-opened the canal after a few days. On his homecoming to Barmouth, Rowland Rowlands was presented with a gift purse of £20 for his bravery.
