Sir Gruffydd Llywd, or Gruffydd ap Rhyd ap Gruffydd ap Ednyfed (died 1335) was a Welsh nobleman notable for his involvement in quashing Roger Mortimer’s 1322 revolt against King Edward II. Throughout his life until his death in 1335, Llwyd held high-ranking positions in Welsh society, with Lordships in Tregarnedd and Dinorwig and serving as Sheriff of Caernarfonshire, Anglesey and Merionethshire. Son of loyalist Rhys ap Gruffyd (died 1284), Gruffyd Llwyd was a supporter of King Edward I and King Edward II, helping to enforce conformity to English rule along the Welsh Marches. Historical folklore has often mistakenly portrayed Llwyd as a ‘Welsh Rebel’ who challenged King Edward II, though this has been strongly disputed by historians.
