Dwygyfylchi

Dwygyfylchi is a village in north Wales. It lies within Conwy County Borough. The ward of Dwygyfylchi contains the nearby settlement of Penmaenmawr and has a population of 3,857.[1][2] The name Dwygyfylchi means the meeting of the two semi circles, referring to the two promentories of Penmaen Bach and Penmaen Mawr. Half a mile to the south-east of the main village lies the original settlement of Capelulo, close to the picturesque Sychnant Pass. The Pen Sychnant birdwatching and nature reserve is nearby. Approximately half of Dwygyfylchi forms the most northern tip of the Snowdonia National Park.
