Amlwch
Amlwch is the most northern town in Wales and is an area. It is located on the north coast of the Island of Anglesey, on the A5025 which connects it to Holyhead and to Menai Bridge. Along with Amlwch community and Amlwch Port, other settlements within the neighborhood include Burwen, Porthllethog/Bull Bay as well as Pentrefelin. The town has a coastline in Llaneilian, and also it has considerable seaside high cliffs. Tourism is an important aspect of the local economic climate. At one time it was a flourishing mining town that came to be the centre of a large global trade in copper ore. The harbour inlet became an active port and substantial shipbuilding and ship repair centre, as well as a departure factor with watercrafts cruising to the Island of Man as well as to Liverpool. The name Amlwch-- a reference to the website of the community's harbour, Porth Amlwch-- derives from Welsh am ("about, on or around") and also llwch (an old acceptation "inlet, creek" - comparable to the Gaelic word "loch" for a body of water). On 23 November 1981, the first hurricane of the record-breaking 1981 UK tornado episode, an F1/T2 tornado, passed through Amlwch. At the 2011 census the area had a population of 3,789.
