Pwllheli
Pwllheli is an area and also the primary market community of the Llyn Peninsula (Welsh: Penrhyn Llyn) in Gwynedd, north-western Wales. It had a population of 4,076 in 2011 of whom a large percentage, 81%, are Welsh talking. Pwllheli is the place where Plaid Cymru was founded. It is the birth place of the Welsh poet Sir Albert Evans-Jones (bardic name Cynan). Pwllheli has a range of stores and also other services. As a local railhead with a market every Wednesday, the town is a gathering point for the population of the whole peninsula. For several years a vacation camp run by Butlins ran a couple of miles from Pwllheli at Pen-y-chain. During the 2nd World War it ended up being a marine camp, HMS Glendower, and also it operated a healthcare facility for damaged servicemen at Brynberyl on the Pwllheli to Caernarfon road two miles out of community. After the war, Butlins re-established the vacation camp. The camp, currently relabelled Hafan y Môr ("Haven of the Sea"), has been redeveloped and is now run by the Haven group.
