Mynytho

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Mynytho is a small village located near the southern coast of the Llŷn Peninsula. It consists of only a few houses, beautiful scenery and some farmland. There are also campsites scattered around the village's outskirts.

Mynytho's memorial hall [1] occupies a significant place in the history of the struggle for the recognition of Welsh culture and the Welsh language.

Mynytho is the site of a small yet highly visible tower that stands on a hill (Foel fawr) overlooking the area. The origins of the tower, which is popularly known to English residents as the "Jampot"[2], are obscure, although it is identified on maps as being an old mill.

It is the neighbouring village of Llanbedrog and Abersoch.
