Llawr Y Dref  Anglesey

 

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

LLAWR-Y-DREF, a tything in Aberffraw parish, Anglesey; near Aberffraw.

The location is simply that of Aberffraw. The name "Llawr y Dref" has not been found on topographic maps, and the search included the 1891 six inch map. Sources agree that Llawr y Dref was "in the vicinity of the town of Aberffraw" (National Gazetteer (1868); http://www.genuki.org.uk/big/wal/AGY/Aberffraw/Gaz1868.html, accessed 16/2/2011).
