Sought and Found - A Story of the Welsh Grail
Narrated by Tim Bowley with music by Adrian Wagner
My Great, Great, Grandfather Richard Wagner
was a visitor to Nanteos Mansion and it was from this place that
the opera 'Parsifal' was originally conceived. Nanteos Mansion
was the resting place for over 300 years for the, so called,
Grail Cup. The Cup which was the same one used in the Last Supper,
made of olive wood.
Joseph of Arimathea brought the Cup to Glastonbury where it remained
until the 16th century when the seven Monks of Glastonbury in
the Dissolution escaped with it and left it in the safe keeping
of the Cistercian Monks of Strata Florida. It was then given
to the Stedman Family by the last remaining monk when they escaped
to the original house, Nant Eos and were looked after until,
one by one, they died.
Later Stedman married into the Powell family who built Nanteos
Mansion in the 1730's. the 16th century when the seven Monks
of Glastonbury in the Dissolution escaped with it and left it
in the safe keeping of the Cistercian Monks of Strata Florida.
It was then given to the Stedman Family by the last remaining
monk when they escaped to the original house, Nant Eos and were
looked after until, one by one, they died.
