Dulas, Anglesey
Dulas () or City DulasOrdnance Survey mapping is a village in Anglesey, in north-west Wales. It is situated on the A5025 road, near the coast ( Dulas Bay) at only above sea level. It is in the community of Llaneilian Llaneilian (; ) is a village and community in the Welsh county of Anglesey. It is located in the north east of the island, east of Amlwch, north west of Menai Bridge and north of Llangefni. The community includes the villages and hamlets of .... Origin of the name The village has never held the status of a city and "City" is not a recognisable Welsh word, so its origin is unclear. It may be that the name came from an Anglicisation of ''Saith Tŷ'', which is Welsh for "Seven Houses". There are two places in Wales simply called 'City': City, Powys and City, Vale of Glamorgan.

Dulas Bay
Dulas Bay (Welsh: ''Bae Dulas'') is a small bay on the north east coast of Anglesey (''Ynys Môn''), north Wales, forming the boundary between Llaneilian and Moelfre communities. The bay is bordered by three beaches. Overview The north-western beach is the sand/shingle/mud estuary Traeth Dulas (''Dulas Beach''); southeast of this is the tiny Traeth Bach (''Small Beach'') and the sandy Traeth Yr Ora (''Beach of The Fortified Landing Place''). The estuary running through Traeth Dulas is that of the Afon Goch (''Red River''). The Traeth Bach and Traeth Yr Ora at high tide are separated by a rock outcrop called Craig y Sais (''The Saxon Rock''). At low tide, however, it is possible to walk on the sand between the three beaches and also onto th beaches of Lligwy Bay to the south. Traeth Dulas is most affected by the tide, so much so that the most inland parts of the estuary are salt marshes. A walk is the circuit starting at Lligwy Bay, taking in Traeth Ora, the Pilot boat Pub and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dulas, Herefordshire
Dulas is a civil parish in the County of Herefordshire in England, 18 km south west of Hereford. There is no village named Dulas, as the parish consists mainly of scattered farms and dwellings. The major buildings within the parish are Dulas Court, a Victorian country house now used as a residential home; and the now redundant church of St. Michael. The Church was the replacement for a much older building, which was demolished when the Court was built; all that remains of the original church are an ancient cross and a couple of gravestones on the front lawn of the residential home. Due to the parish's unspoilt rural nature, it is home to some nationally rare wildlife. The churchyard hosts a variety of orchids, and the Dulas brook that runs through the parish is home to otters and white-clawed crayfish ''Austropotamobius pallipes'' is an endangered European freshwater crayfish, and the only crayfish native to the British Isles. Its common names include white-clawed crayf ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Another river called Afon Dulas joins the Dyfi from the south, upstream of its confluence with the North Dulas: locally this is referred to as the South Dulas. Route of North Dulas Afon Dulas rises from a source in the hills above Aberllefenni and passes through Corris, Esgairgeiliog and Pantperthog before joining the Afon Dyfi at Ffridd Gate near Machynlleth.
