Abergele
Abergele is a community and small sized market town. The symbolism of the name Abergele can be understood by 'aber' being the Welsh word which means estuary, and 'Gele' the name of the river which goes through the town. Gele is a colloquial form of gelau, which means spear, believed to be describing the motion of the river cutting through the land. It has in addition been said that this river is named because its waters flash brilliantly. The town is situated on the north coast of Wales between the holiday resorts of Colwyn Bay and Rhyl, in Conwy County Borough. Its northern suburb of Pensarn lies on the Irish Sea coast and is known for its beach, where it is insisted by some that a ghost ship has been spotted. Abergele and Pensarn train stations serve both resorts. The town itself lies on the A55 road and is known for Gwrych Castle. The town is surrounded by forest covered hillsides, which feature caverns with rare lesser horseshoe bats. The tallest hill is Moelfre Isaf (1040 feet) to the south of the town. There are in addition exceptional views from Cefn-yr-Ogof, which measures 669 feet, Tower Hill, which is 587 feet, and Castell Cawr (known in the area as Tan-y-Gopa) which is 189 metres (620 feet). Castell Cawr is an Iron Age hillfort, and one of several in the region. Dinorben hillfort to the east of town was ruined in the 1980s. According to the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 10577 people. Within this population, roughly 29% possess a considerable knowledge of Welsh.
