Llaneuddog
Llaneuddog is a hamlet in the community of Llaneilian, Ynys Môn, Wales. It lies along the A5025 road, between Brynrefail and Penysarn, near Dulas. It belonged to the historical parish of Llanwenllwyfo, now part of Llaneilian. The hamlet takes its name from an ancient chapel to St Euddog which was in the vicinity of the A5025. It was recorded in 1920 as having the stones re-used in farm buildings, and the water stoup used as a pig trough at nearby Lligwy. The presumed site is a small enclosure with a crescent-shaped bank thought to be the churchyard boundary. One of the prominent buildings near the Llaneuddog crossroads is Sardis Baptist Chapel. First built in 1834, it was rebuilt in 1905 at the height of the 1904–1905 Welsh revival. The 1919 ''Memoirs of the Geological Survey of England & Wales'' suggests that in the early part of the 20th century there was a brickworks in the area.

Community (Wales)
A community ( cy, cymuned) is a division of land in Wales that forms the lowest tier of local government in Wales. Welsh communities are analogous to civil parishes in England. There are 878 communities in Wales. History Until 1974 Wales was divided into civil parishes. These were abolished by section 20 (6) of the Local Government Act 1972, and replaced by communities by section 27 of the same Act. The principal areas of Wales are divided entirely into communities. Unlike in England, where unparished areas exist, no part of Wales is outside a community, even in urban areas. Most, but not all, communities are administered by community councils, which are equivalent to English parish councils in terms of their powers and the way they operate. Welsh community councils may call themselves town councils unilaterally and may have city status granted by the Crown. In Wales, all town councils are community councils. There are now three communities with city status: Bangor, St ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
