Aberdovey
Aberdovey, or Aberdyfi in Welsh, is a community in Gwynedd, on the west cost of Wales. It was originally a shipbuilding village, but is now a popular seaside resort with superior beaches. It had a population of 1282 in 2011.
The town centre is on the river and seafront, but it stretches back far from the coast and up the hillside. The town is situated in the Snowdonia National Park, making it popular with tourists. Many holidaymakers from the West Midlands go on holiday there, as it is less than 100 miles to the east of Aberdyfi. There are many activities to do along the beach, including sailing, kitesurfing and dinghy racing.
It is likely that the village has had a setttlement for a long time. There is evidence that the Romans formed a track into Aberdyfi as part of their occupation of Wales in AD 78. Pen-y-Bryn, the hill in the middle of Aberdyfi, is claimed to be the site of the defensive walls built in the 1150s. These were soon destroyed.
