Is Clydach the same as Aberclydach? - it seems so...
```````````````````
(quote, excerpts)
Clydach Vale. Its old name was Cwm Pwca (Puck's valley);
local legend has it that Shakespeare knew a family in
Aberclydach,
and wrote 'A Midsummer Night's Dream' here.

There is an old communion table dated 1624, while the altar was
reputed to have been taken from the cellar of Aberclydach House and is
the older.

Under this window is an old communion table dated 1624. The present
alter is reputed to have been taken out of the cellar of the
Aberclydach House. It is the older of the two, and a magnificent
specimen of Elizabethan work.
