Digwyddodd Terfysg y Beca yn ystod cyfnod o galedi ariannol a chymdeithasol rhwng 1839 ac 1844. Roedd y terfysg yn brotest yn erbyn tollau drud ar hyd y ffyrdd a chamweinyddu ar ran y Cwmnïau Tyrpeg.
Sefydlwyd Prosiect Bro Beca er mwyn ychwanegu at y wybodaeth hanesyddol a’r cof gwerin am ‘y Beca’, er mwyn nodi safleoedd sy o arwyddocâd hanesyddol yn ogystal â chwedlau gwerin am Derfysg Beca a’r cymeriadau oedd yn glwm â’r helyntion.

  The Rebecca Riots took place between 1839 and 1844 at a time of financial and social hardship. The disturbances were a protest against the expense of the toll roads and the mismanagement of the Turnpike Trusts.
The Bro Beca Project was established to build on the historic and living culture of ‘Rebecca’, to identify sites of historical significance as well as local tales of the Rebecca Riots and its associated characters.
