Barmouth
Barmouth is a community and community in the county of Gwynedd, north-western Wales, resting on the estuary of the River Mawddach and Cardigan Bay. Found in the Historic county of Merionethshire, the Welsh form of the name is stemmed from "Aber" (estuary) as well as the river's name, "Mawddach". The English form of the name is a corruption of the earlier Welsh kind 'Abermawdd'. The community is served by Barmouth railway station. The town expanded around the shipbuilding sector, as well as more lately as a seaside resort. Significant buildings consist of the medieval Ty Gwyn tower house, the 19th century Ty Crwn roundhouse prison and St John's Church. William Wordsworth, a visitor to Barmouth in the 19th century, explained it hence: "With a great sea sight ahead, the hills behind, the marvelous estuary running 8 miles [13 km] inland, and also Cadair Idris within compass of a day's walk, Barmouth can constantly hold its very own versus any kind of rival." Dinas Oleu (Citadel of Light), which lies east of the community on the adjacent hillside, was the initial system of land to be contributed to the National Count on.
