Note 113d — Chapter V · OF THE RIVER DEVI, AND THE LAND OF THE SONS OF CONAN

The epithet “bifurcus,” ascribed by Giraldus to the river Maw, alludes to its two branches, which unite their streams a little way below Llaneltid bridge, and form an æstuary, which flows down to the sea at Barmouth or Aber Maw. The ford at this place, discovered by Malgo, no longer exists.
