The Wales Minister, Alun Cairns has said the flooding of a Welsh Valley in Gwynedd to provide drinking water for Liverpool was "a shameful chapter in Welsh history".
The village Capel Celyn, one of the last Welsh only speaking communities, was flooded 50 years ago to create the Tryweryn reservoir and Cairns said it marked "some of the darkest and some of the most regrettable days in modern Welsh history".
A dozen houses and farms were submerged and 48 people dispossessed.
