CORWEN is once again set to celebrate Owain Glyndwr Day tomorrow (Friday, September 16).

For the last 20 years or so, residents of the Denbighshire town have been celebrating their links to one of Wales' most notable historical figures.

Every year, people gather at the Glyndwr statue in the town square on the date when his proclamation took place in 1400.

The event consists of a procession and wreath laying ceremony before a service takes place at the local church.

A memorial service will take place at the Seion Church in Corwen for 10.30am.

There will also be presentations made by pupils of Betws Gwerfyl Goch and Gwyddelwern schools before the Cambrian Band marches to the Glyndwr statue at around 11am.

On the same day, King Charles is making his first visit to Wales as monarch down in Cardiff.

The King and Queen Consort will attend a prayer and reflection service for the Queen at Llandaff Cathedral, with events also being held at the Senedd and Cardiff Castle.

Last week, the new King announced that his son, William would become the new 'Prince of Wales'.

Corwen is widely known for its connection to Owain Glyndwr, who was proclaimed the Prince of Wales on September 16, 1400 at his nearby manor in Glyndyfrdwy.

Corwen's Glyndwr statue was created in 2007 by Colin Spofforth and is a life-size bronze figure which stands upon an eight ton plinth and shows the great leader on his horse in battle uniform.
