===Origin of the name=== Hints about the derivation of the name ''Radyr'' can be found in [[Lifris]]'s writings ''Life of St Cadog'', written between 1081 and 1104 but relating to the earlier period around AD 530, which mentions a croft or ''tref'' on the site called ''Aradur Hen''. Lifris also tells the story of ''Tylyway'', a [[hermit]] who was held to have lived on the banks of the Taff. Tylyway's cell is the most likely origin of the name Radyr; from the Welsh ''yr adur'', meaning "the [[chantry]]", although ''Arudur Hen'' is also possible.<ref name=TC&G/>
