Benllech

With its excellent beach to attract holidaymakers, Benllech is probably the most popular resort on Anglesey, but those coming here should take care as there are strong tidal currents and the sands can be treacherous. This resort has another claim to fame, as the birthplace of the poet Goronwy Owen. He lived between 1723 and 1769, and spent his last years in Virginia as the rector of St Andrew’s Church in Laurenceville. His fame rests on an output of just 55 poems.

Traces of a hill fort, Castell Mawr, can be found on the west side of Red Wharf Bay, and on the evidence of coins found here, the site could once have been occupied by the Romans.
