David Davies (18 December 1818 – 20 July 1890) was a Welsh industrialist and
Liberal politician who sat in the
House of Commons between 1874 and 1886. Davies was often known as
David Davies Llandinam (from the place of his birth,
Llandinam in
Powys), to differentiate him from others of the same name. He is best remembered today for founding
Barry Docks.
