Allen Samuels, John Dixon Hunt
The site and surroundings of Aberglasney deserve what little attention they have attracted outside the Principality by virtue of having been the home of the poet and painter John Dyer (1699-1757). In neither art was he particularly accomplished, but what talent he had was poetic, and Wordsworth admired him. His topographical poems occupy an important niche in the annals of the eighteenth century's growing absorption in country life and in representing the experience of rural landscape.
