Writings

Allen contributed to Seren Gomer, which had been the first Welsh-language weekly newspaper, [1] and to other publications. However, by Allen's time Seren Gomer was a monthly, and it would later become a quarterly associated with the Baptists.

None of Allen's poetry is thought to have been published.
