Beaumaris
Beaumaris is a neighborhood, and also the former county town, of Anglesey, Wales, at the eastern entryway to the Menai Strait, the tidal river dividing Anglesey from the coast of North Wales. At the 2011 census, its population was 1,938. Beaumaris was the port of enrollment for all vessels in North West Wales, covering every harbour on Anglesey and all the ports from Conwy to Pwllheli. Shipbuilding was a major industry in Beaumaris. This was centred on Gallows Point-- a nearby spit of land extending right into the Menai Strait concerning a mile west of the community. Gallows Point had originally been called "Osmund's Eyre" but was renamed when the community hangings was erected there-- along with a "Dead House" for the corpses of lawbreakers dispatched in public implementations. Later on, danglings were executed at the town gaol and the bodies hidden in a lime-pit within the curtilage of the gaol. Among the last detainees to hang at Beaumaris issued a curse before he passed away-- announcing that if he was innocent the 4 faces of the church clock would certainly never ever show the exact same time.
