Mae'r garreg hon yn cofnodi gweithred hael pwnc lleol Syr Charles Garden Assheton-Smith Baronet of Vaynol a roddodd dair tŷ i'w ddymchwel er mwyn i rai miloedd o'i wledydd fod yn dyst i fuddsoddiad Tywysog Cymru 13 Gorffennaf 1911. Rhoddodd hefyd y ddaear lle'r oeddent yn sefyll i'r Goron i fod yn agored i'r cyhoedd am byth ac yn rhydd o adeiladu. This stone records the generous deed of a local subject Sir Charles Garden Assheton-Smith Baronet of Vaynol who gave three houses to be demolished in order that some thousands of his countrymen might witness the investiture of The Prince of Wales 13th July 1911. He also gave the ground whereon they stood to The Crown to be forever open to the public and free from building.
