BrynsiencynClose to this village there was once an important centre of Druid worship, but no signs remain of the temple that stood at Tre-Drwy. There are, however, several other interesting remains in the area. Just to the west of the village lies Caer Leb, an Iron Age earthwork consisting of a pentagonal enclosure 200 feet by 160 feet encircled by banks andditches, while, just a short distance away is Bodowyr Burial Chamber, a massive stone that is, seemingly, delicately perched upon three upright stones. To the south of the burial chamber, and just a mile west of Brynsiencyn, are the earthwork remains of Castell Bryn Gwyn, a site that has been excavated and shows traces of hving been used from as far back as the New Stone Age through to the time of the Roman occupation of Britain.Backin the village, and found down the small road leading to the shore is Foel Farm Park, a real working farm that offers visitors the opportunity to bottle feed ambs and baby calves, cuddle rabbits, see and help with milking and enjoy the homemade ice cream. There are also covered areas for rainy days, which include an adventure play den and an indoor picnic room.Aso overlooking the Menai Strait is the Anglesey Sea Zoo, an award-winning attraction that takes visitors beneath the waves and into the underwater world of a wide variety of sea creatures. The imaginative and innovative displays allow visitors a unique vie of these interesting beasts, which include sea horses, oysters, conger eels and rays.In the graveyard of the Victorian parish church is a monument to the grandly named Sir Ellis Jones Ellis-Griffith, MP for Anglesey from 1895 until 1918. Though born in Birmingham, he was brought up in the village, and died in 1926. |
