Huwal lang cy Hywel modern English language English Howell was a Britons historical Brythonic monarch of the early to mid 10th century recorded in the Anglo Saxon Chronicle . The Chronicle refers to him as king of the WestWelsh , the usual Anglo Saxons Anglo Saxon name for the Cornish people Cornish or southwestern Britons. However, there are no other known references to a king of this name in that region at the time, and as such his identity is a matter of debate. Huwal is mentioned only in the Anglo Saxon Chronicle entry for 926, as one of several kings who signed a treaty at Eamont Bridge accepting King Athelstan of England Athelstan of Wessex as their overlord. He is described as king of the WestWelsh, implying he was ruler of the Kingdom of Cornwall or its predecessor state of Dumnonia . Some scholars take this at face value for example Philip Payton of the Institute of Cornish Studies indicates that he is regarded as the last in a line of independent or semi independent Cornish Dumnonian kings . ref Philip Payton . 1996 . Cornwall . Fowey Alexander Associates ref As such the final submission of Cornwall to Wessex may be attributed to him.

The Welsh Not or Welsh Note was a punishment system used in some Wales Welsh schools in the late 19th and early 20th century to dissuade children from speaking Welsh language Welsh . It was represented as a piece of wood, inscribed with the letters WN , that was hung around the necks of children who spoke Welsh during the school day. The not was given to any child overheard speaking Welsh, who would pass it to a different child if they were overheard speaking Welsh. By the end of the day, the wearer of the not would be given a corporal punishment lashing . The idea of the not was to discourage pupils from speaking Welsh, at a time when English language English was considered by some to be the only suitable medium of instruction .
