Y Felinheli

Y Felinheli, previously known in English as Port Dinorwic, is a town, neighborhood and selecting ward next to the Menai Strait in between Bangor as well as Caernarfon in Gwynedd, north-west Wales. The population of the village was 2,284 at the 2011 Census. Y Felinheli has its origins in two communities, Tafarngrisiau near St Mary's Church as well as Aberpwll to the north-east where there was a mill on the Afon Heulyn. The mill was rebuilt closer to the sea in 1633 as well as offered its name to the negotiation. The area was mainly farming until the location was transformed by slate quarrying in the 19th century. A new dock was integrated in 1828 when lime was drawn out at Brynadda and slate and also lime were packed and culm (coal dust or anthracite slack) was brought in to discharge the lime kilns. The proprietors of the Vaynol Estate, the Assheton Smiths, possessed the majority of the land in Y Felinheli and also developed the Dinorwic Quarry in the late 18th century, They also constructed the harbour to export slate transferred to the quay by the Dinorwic Railway, a slim gauge train that was subsequently replaced by the Padarn Railway. Industrial development provided Y Felinheli (Felin-hely, 1838) the alternate name Port Dinorwig or Port Dinorwic.
