The Tabwrdd
A Traditional Welsh Drum
Drawings discovered by Cass Meurig.
From records of Rev. Meredith Morris.
He was also a talented instrument maker
from the Cwm Gwaun Valley, who saw this drum
being played at funerals in Wales around the turn of the centuary.
The barrel is approx six inches deep with
six one inch holes running around the centre of the barrel.
A wooden cross piece with two pine baffles on either side
is fixed to the inside of the drum.
Goat skins on either end, finish off this interesting drum.
