| Notes | Enwyd y tŷ ar ôl llong a adeiladwyd ym 1860 gan Henry Harries ym Mheris, Llansantffraed. Mae'n debyg mai Richard Richards y llongfeistr a'i enwodd. The house was named after a ship built in 1860 by Henry Harries in Peris, Llansantffraed. It's likely that the house was named by Richard Richards, the master mariner.
