Full Job Description

Mae Tŷ Mawr Wybrnant yn ffermdy syml o'r 16eg ganrif a chanddo arwyddocâd diwylliannol enfawr. Yn swatio yn nyffryn gwledig Wybrnant, ger Penmachno, mae'n enwog am mai dyma'r lle y ganwyd yr Esgob William Morgan a gyfieithodd y Beibl i'r Gymraeg ym 1588. Arweiniodd hyn at iaith safonol a gyfrannodd at sicrhau bod y Gymraeg yn parhau i gael ei siarad yn eang hyd heddiw. Mae'r casgliad wedi tyfu i gynnwys dros 300 o Feiblau mewn dros 100 o ieithoedd, sy'n adlewyrchu sut y mae'r stori hon yn berthnasol i ddiwylliannau o bob cwr o'r byd.
