Maestref o Dreforys o'r enw Cwmrhydyceirw. Yn ystod diwygiad crefyddol y 19g fe newidiwyd yr enw gwreddiol 'Cwmrhydycwrw' gan y trigolion parchus i'r un presennol am nad oedd yr enw yn eu tyb nhw'n addas. Cwmrhydyceirw (trans. valley ford of stags) is a suburb of Morriston. Its original name 'Cwmrhydycwrw' (valley ford of beer) was changed to its present name during the religious revivals of the c19 when respected locals thought that the name was unsuitable.
