Tywyn
Tywyn, previously led to Towyn, is a community, community, and seaside resort on the Cardigan Bay coast of southern Gwynedd, Wales. It was formerly in the historical region of Merionethshire. It is well-known as the place of the Cadfan Stone, a stone cross with the earliest known example of composed Welsh, and also the home of the Talyllyn Railway. At the time of the 2001 census, 40.5% of the population were recorded as Welsh audio speakers. By the 2011 census this had reduced to 37.5%. These reasonably high figures (given the community's population analysis) show the use of both Welsh and also English as the medium of instruction in Ysgol Penybryn, the community's primary school. An Estyn assessment report in 2010 kept in mind that concerning 11% of the children at the school came from residences where Welsh was the major language.
