Beaumaris
Beaumaris is a community, and also the previous county town, of Anglesey, Wales, at the eastern entrance to the Menai Strait, the tidal waterway dividing Anglesey from the coastline of North Wales. At the 2011 census, its population was 1,938. Beaumaris was the port of enrollment for all vessels in North West Wales, covering every harbour on Anglesey and all the ports from Conwy to Pwllheli. Shipbuilding was a major industry in Beaumaris. This was centred on Gallows Point-- a nearby spit of land expanding right into the Menai Strait regarding a mile west of the community. Gallows Point had actually initially been called "Osmund's Eyre" but was renamed when the community gallows was erected there-- in addition to a "Dead House" for the remains of crooks dispatched in public executions. Later, danglings were accomplished at the community gaol as well as the bodies buried in a lime-pit within the curtilage of the gaol. Among the last detainees to hang at Beaumaris issued a curse before he died-- decreeing that if he was innocent the 4 faces of the church clock would certainly never ever show the exact same time.
