Rabbit Fort is waelas and Sassnaeg. Seriously, it was Henry VII and VIII who developed RN for Elizabeth to raid gold-galleons and settle N America, and then for later defeat of Holland and France. The Empire was at its base, driven by Cymru.

[By 1852 a total of about 1,800 of the convicts in Australia had been tried in Wales - about 1.2% of the total number of convicts transported to Australia by that time.]
So some token Taffys were thrown in to hide the Saxon embarrassment, and usually convicted for taking coal-dust on their boots. Westminster left long gaps in Offa's Dyke, which collapsed as Tudors swarmed across that Iron Curtain and made Britain what you see today.

"Taffy was a Welch man, Taffy was a thief."
Guess that means your "transport" to foreign parts was at the tax payers' expense.
Talking of rabbits, didn't your lot create a Maginot Line for them with the same effect.
Sorry, but after a difficult shift and a drop of Welsh whiskey, I am in a mood to take the **ss.
Cheers

Gar (Welsh) = thigh or shank. Or could be derived from caer/gaer - fort.
Rabbits' fort sounds like a possibility.

Cony is "rabbit" (OF., Latin)
[McBain Gaelic Dictionary._
gar
warm, Irish goraim, Old Irish gorim, Breton gor, burning, Welsh gwręs, heat: *gorô, I warm; Greek @Gqeros, summer heat, @Gqermós, warm, English thermo-meter; Latin furnus, oven, furnace; Church Slavonic goręti, burn; further English warm (Indo-European *@gh@+uormo-, Teutonic gwarm).
gar, gair, gaire
near proximity, Irish gar, near (adj. and adv.), Middle Irish gar, shortly, Welsh ger, gar, near. See goirid for root.]
Derived from druid training for ovate "seers" who easily detected warm rabbits nearby using willow rods. Also a popular hobbit hobby.
