Pwllheli
Pwllheli is an area as well as the main market town of the Llyn Peninsula (Welsh: Penrhyn Llyn) in Gwynedd, north-western Wales. It had a population of 4,076 in 2011 of whom a big percentage, 81%, are Welsh talking. Pwllheli is the location where Plaid Cymru was founded. It is the birth place of the Welsh poet Sir Albert Evans-Jones (bardic name Cynan). Pwllheli has a variety of shops and also other services. As a regional railhead with a market every Wednesday, the town is a gathering point for the population of the whole peninsula. For many years a holiday camp run by Butlins ran a couple of miles from Pwllheli at Pen-y-chain. Throughout the 2nd World War it came to be a marine camp, HMS Glendower, and also it ran a medical facility for injured servicemen at Brynberyl on the Pwllheli to Caernarfon roadway two miles out of town. After the war, Butlins re-established the holiday camp. The camp, currently relabelled Hafan y Môr ("Haven of the Sea"), has actually been redeveloped and is now run by the Haven group.
