History[]

Sneed and Company was a mortuary located at 7 Temperance Court in Llandaff. (PROSE: The Time Traveller's Almanac) It was owned by Gabriel Sneed. The property was located on top of the Rift, through which the gaseous Gelth travelled and possessed dead bodies. On Christmas Day 1869, Gwyneth blew it up to stop them. (TV: The Unquiet Dead)

Llandaff House was located in Cardiff by early 2006. (PROSE: Rose sighting confirmed)

Mike and Sue Roach, friends of Jackie and Joe Hargreaves, lived in Llandaff. Joe and Jackie were returning to Cowbridge from the Hargreaves' via the A48 when they became the first victims of "The All-Night Zombie Horror Show". At this time, the time energy barrier which covered Cardiff also covered Llandaff. (PROSE: Bay of the Dead)

Behind the scenes[]

  • In the 19th century, Llandaff was a village, however it was officially known as a city due to its status as the seat of the Bishop of Llandaff. On 9 November 1922, the county borough of Cardiff was extended to include Llandaff and the local area. This makes it officially a district and an electoral ward of Cardiff itself.
