Barmouth is a community as well as neighborhood in the region of Gwynedd, north-western Wales, resting on the estuary of the River Mawddach and Cardigan Bay. Situated 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 type of the name is a corruption of the earlier Welsh kind ‘Abermawdd’. The community is served by Barmouth railway station. The town grew around the shipbuilding market, and also much more recently as a seaside resort. Noteworthy structures consist of the medieval 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 therefore: “With a great sea view in front, the mountains behind, the marvelous estuary running eight miles [13 kilometres] inland, and also Cadair Idris within compass of a day’s walk, Barmouth can constantly hold its very own against any type of rival.” Dinas Oleu (Citadel of Light), which lies east of the town on the adjoining hill, was the initial tract of land to be donated to the National Count on.
