Although small, Trefin is an historical village. It is inextricably linked to the Archdruid Crwys, who was born in Craig Cefn Parc, Glamorganshire, and the historic mill is the subject of his most famous work, the poem 'Melin Trefin', one of the most famous poems in the Welsh language. The mill was in use for around 500 years and was used by the villagers of Trefin and surrounding areas. Wheat was milled to produce flour for bread baking and barley was ground into winter feed for livestock. By the 1900 cheap grain was being imported from overseas and milled in larger mills in towns and cities. Trefin Mill eventually closed in 1918. The mill building still stands but with no roof. The mill stones (seen here) still remain.
