Bron-y-aurBron-Y-Aur, or Bron-Yr-Aur, is a small hamlet in Wales, on a hilltop overlooking the Dovey Valley, about 45 km north-east of Aberystwyth. The rock band Led Zeppelin spent time there in 1969 - 1970, during the recording of their Led Zeppelin III album. They subsequently used the name of the village in the title of two different songs, Bron-Yr-Aur, a tour-de-force by Jimmy Page on the twelve-string guitar, and Bron-Y-Aur Stomp, a country music inflected hoedown in which Robert Plant waxes lyrical about walking in the woods with his dog. Bron-Y-Aur is pronounced rar, and means "golden bosom" in Welsh.
