Barmouth
Barmouth is a community and community in the county of Gwynedd, north-western Wales, lying on 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) and the river's name, "Mawddach". The English kind of the name is a corruption of the earlier Welsh form 'Abermawdd'. The community is served by Barmouth railway station. The community expanded around the shipbuilding sector, and also much more lately as a seaside hotel. Noteworthy buildings include the middle ages Ty Gwyn tower house, the 19th century Ty Crwn roundhouse jail and also St John's Church. William Wordsworth, a visitor to Barmouth in the 19th century, defined it hence: "With a fine sea sight in front, the hills behind, the glorious tidewater running eight miles [13 km] inland, and Cadair Idris within compass of a day's walk, Barmouth can constantly hold its own against any kind of opponent." Dinas Oleu (Citadel of Light), which is located east of the town on the adjoining hill, was the very first tract of land to be given away to the National Trust.
