Wales fell to the power of England in 1282 on the death of the last Welsh Prince of Wales, Llywelyn ap Gruffydd, or Llywelyn the last, grandson of Llywelyn the Great. He died in an ambush at Builth in Powys on December 11th, mid afternoon. It was thought that the ambush was a minor skirmish and that he was killed by accident but letters have since come to light that tell that it was a deliberate act to end resistence in Wales. Acts of union were later passed, but in reality it all ended on December 11th 1282.
