Pwllheli
Pwllheli is a community and also the major 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 proportion, 81%, are Welsh speaking. Pwllheli is the place where Plaid Cymru was founded. It is the birthplace of the Welsh poet Sir Albert Evans-Jones (bardic name Cynan). Pwllheli has a range of stores and 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 many years a vacation camp run by Butlins operated a couple of miles from Pwllheli at Pen-y-chain. During the 2nd World War it became a marine camp, HMS Glendower, and also it ran a healthcare facility for injured servicemen at Brynberyl on the Pwllheli to Caernarfon roadway two miles out of community. After the war, Butlins re-established the vacation camp. The camp, currently renamed Hafan y Môr ("Haven of the Sea"), has been redeveloped as well as is now run by the Haven group.
