Llwyngwrll  Merionethshire

 

In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales described Llwyngwrll like this:

LLWYNGWRILL, a township in Llangelynin parish, Merioneth; on the coast, and on the Aberystwith and Welsh coast railway, 6½ miles N of Towyn. It has a station on the railway; includes a poor-looking village of its own name; and contains the new parish church, an ancient camp, and sever.al Druidical stones. Real property, £1,510. Pop., 334.

The location is where the name "Llwyngwril" appears on the modern 1:50,000 map. It seems to have been mostly erased from our particular copy of the 1940s New Popular map. Additional information about this locality is available for Llangelynnin
