Dolgellau
Dolgellau is a market community and also community in Gwynedd, north-west Wales, lying on the River Wnion, a tributary of the River Mawddach. It is generally the county town of the historic area of Merionethshire (Welsh: Meirionnydd, Sir Feirionnydd), which lost its management condition when Gwynedd was developed in 1974. Dolgellau is the main base for climbers of Cadair Idris. Although really small, it is the second largest negotiation in Southern Gwynedd after Tywyn. The area consists of Penmaenpool. The name of the community is of uncertain beginning, although dôl is Welsh for "meadow" or "dale", and also (y) gelli (soft mutation of celli) suggests "grove" or "spinney", and prevails in your area in names for farms in sheltered nooks. This would certainly appear to be one of the most likely derivation, giving the translation "Grove Meadow". It has likewise been suggested that the name might originate from the word cell, meaning "cell", converting therefore as "Meadow of [monks'] cells", but this seems much less likely thinking about the history of the name. The earliest tape-recorded spelling (from 1253, in the Survey of Merioneth) is "Dolkelew", although a spelling "Dolgethley" days from 1285. From after that till the 19th century, most punctuations were along the lines of "Dôlgelly" "Dolgelley", "Dolgelly" or "Dolgelli" (Owain Glyndwr's scribe wrote "Dolguelli"). Thomas Pennant utilized the form "Dolgelleu" in his Tours of Wales, and also this was the kind utilized in the Church Registers in 1723, although it never had much currency. In 1825 the Registers had "Dolgellau", which develop Robert Vaughan of Hengwrt adopted in 1836. While this type might originate from a false etymology, it came to be standard in Welsh as well as is currently the basic type in both Welsh and also English. It was embraced as the official name by the local rural area council in 1958. Shortly prior to the closure of the community's railway station it presented indicators checking out otherwise Dolgelly, Dolgelley and Dolgellau.
