Farthing. - Peter John. Peter Farthing passed away peacefully at Wrexham Hospital aged 63. He was a well-known character who lived for many years at his beloved house in the Ceiriog Valley. He was very involved in the life of the Valley where he will be remembered for his role as secretary of the Ceiriog Valley Sheepdog Trials, for lifting trophies at the Garden Society show for his onions and sweet peas and for conducting the auction of produce after the show. He supported events at Llanarmon DC and became an active member of FWAG (Farming and Wildlife Advisory Group) and gave his legal knowledge freely in setting up the legal status of Canolfan Ceiriog Centre in 2004. His funeral service will be held in the Chapel at Pembroke College, Oxford on Thursday, 17th May. Peter enjoyed classical music and chose Cwm Rhondda along with music by Bach, Elgar, Schubert and Vaughan Williams to be played at his funeral.
