On June 20, 2009, a crowd gathered in the sunshine on Primrose Hill in London to remember the first modern gathering of the gorsedd bards that took place there June 21, 1792. The BBC's Huw Edwards introduced proceedings and various others, led by the deputy archdruid took part, including Rhian Medi who unveiled the memorial plaque to the founder of the modern eisteddfod Iolo Morganwg that is now a permanent feature of the site. It has taken the work of many people to get this organised and thankfulness was expressed for all their efforts. One of Iolo's descendants was present as a guest of honour.
