Barmouth
Barmouth is a town and also neighborhood in the area of Gwynedd, north-western Wales, pushing the tidewater of the River Mawddach and Cardigan Bay. Found in the Historic county of Merionethshire, the Welsh form of the name is stemmed from "Aber" (tidewater) as well as the river's name, "Mawddach". The English kind of the name is a corruption of the earlier Welsh kind 'Abermawdd'. The community is offered by Barmouth train station. The community grew around the shipbuilding industry, as well as much more recently as a seaside hotel. Notable structures include the middle ages Ty Gwyn tower house, the 19th century Ty Crwn roundhouse prison and also St John's Church. William Wordsworth, a visitor to Barmouth in the 19th century, explained it thus: "With a fine sea sight in front, the hills behind, the wonderful tidewater running eight miles [13 km] inland, as well as Cadair Idris within compass of a day's stroll, Barmouth can always hold its own against any kind of rival." Dinas Oleu (Citadel of Light), which lies east of the community on the adjoining hill, was the very first tract of land to be contributed to the National Trust fund.
