It was against this background that Prince Gruffydd ap Rhys of Deheubarth, a south-western region of Wales, travelled to Anglesey to meet with Gwenllian's father and there met and fell in love with Gwenllian, who was said to have been beautiful and well educated, eloping with her soon after.y involved in retaliatory strikes against the Normans as they encroached further into the kingdom, Gruffydd and Gwenllian often seizing Norman goods and money and distributing it among their own people.g to form an all-important alliance with his father in law in 1136, the Normans planned a counter attack, led by the Lord of Kidwelly Maurice de Londres.ps were already sailing up the Glamorgan coast carrying Norman reinforcements and she immediately rode out to muster an army. Her force was small compared to the Normans however and Gwenllian's plan was to conduct raids on the Normans whilst sending a small group to prevent the Norman reinforcements landing. In the meantime, she set up camp in the woods near Kidwelly Castle to organise her men and await her husband's return. Gwenllian was betrayed however by a fellow Welshman who led the Normans straight to her and she was forced to counter a surprise attack with a hopelessly outnumbered and ill-equipped army. The Welsh were said to have fought valiantly, but they were soon defeated and n spread, giving impetus to a popular revolt that saw the Welsh Princes drive the Normans out of much of South Wales. It was said that in that revolt, and for many years afterwards, the Welsh battle cry was 'Ddail Achos Gwenllian' - Revenge for Gwenllian - and the field where she died has been known as Maes Gwenllian ever since. The author and chronicler Gerald of Wales likened her to the legendary Queen of the Amazons.
