Morphology: cefn+crib
Phonetic: kev-n-kreeb
In geographical terms, "cefn" means ridge and "crib" is the crest of a hill. There is much debate whether the correct form is Cefn-y-crib as can be seen in the historical examples Ceven-y-crib 1741 and the Keven y Krib 1801, or whether it is Cefn-crib, which most locals use today, and is what the local authority uses also.
