Bancyfelin is a village, 5 miles west of Carmarthen, Wales. The English translation of the Welsh name is Hillside of the Mill. There is no remnant of the mill today. The village is known for producing international sporting stars despite having a population of only 300 or so people. These include three British & Irish Lions rugby players from Bancyfelin, Delme Thomas, Mike Phillips and Jonathan Davies. When The Lions toured Australia in the 2013 British & Irish Lions tour, all 3 of the 23-man squads to play Australia had more players from Bancyfelin than from Scotland.
