The Men of Sweyns Ey visited Ty Olwen recently to present a donation of £870 raised during their Mumming performances. Each year just before Christmas the Men of Sweyn’s Ey perfom The Gower Christmas Sport and Crympyn John, mummers plays, a tradition dating back several centuries. These comical plays are delivered in rhyme and include a mock fight between two heroes, one of whom is killed. A doctor appears and resurrects him and he lives to fight another day.
We have received a further donation of £90.00 raised during their Gowere Wassail.
