[QUOTE="Miscstuff, post: 2760859, member: 1331"]That's a hard one. Google translate seems to think "caer bar" is Spanish for "drop bar" and a South Wales history thing I found says this... Cited from [URL]https://archive.org/stream/southwaleshistor00londuoft/southwaleshistor00londuoft_djvu.txt[/URL][I] The town of Cardiff, in which the Marquis of Bute is the greatest landed proprietor, derives its name from " Caer Bar," the fortress on the Taff, but little is known of its history from the departure of the Romans till the conquest of Glamorgan. :confused: [/I][/QUOTE]
