He added: “She went to the toilet and came back and asked the other children where Ifan was.
His mother drove around the land to look for Ifan until his uncle, Matthew Owen, discovered him face-down in the pond. Ifan was unresponsive, and the Welsh Ambulance Service was called.Despite the best efforts of family and paramedics Ifan was declared dead at 6.40pm.
