Pwllheli
Pwllheli is a community and also the main market community of the Llyn Peninsula (Welsh: Penrhyn Llyn) in Gwynedd, north-western Wales. It had a population of 4,076 in 2011 of whom a huge percentage, 81%, are Welsh speaking. Pwllheli is the place where Plaid Cymru was founded. It is the birth place of the Welsh poet Sir Albert Evans-Jones (bardic name Cynan). Pwllheli has a range of shops and also other services. As a regional railhead with a market every Wednesday, the community is a gathering point for the population of the entire peninsula. For several years a holiday camp run by Butlins operated a few miles from Pwllheli at Pen-y-chain. Throughout the 2nd World War it became a naval camp, HMS Glendower, and also it operated a healthcare facility for wounded servicemen at Brynberyl on the Pwllheli to Caernarfon road 2 miles out of community. After the war, Butlins re-established the holiday camp. The camp, now renamed Hafan y Môr ("Haven of the Sea"), has been redeveloped and is now run by the Haven team.
