Pentre Berw
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pentre Berw is a small village located on the island of Anglesey, in north Wales, just two and a half miles south of the county town of Llangefni. A major road, the A5, runs through the village as does the disused Anglesey Central Railway. Indeed the village's most famous hotel The Holland Arms even had a station named after it. The village is located at the top of a gentle slope on the eastern edge of the Malltraeth marshes. Therefore a good view of the marshes and also of the Afon Cefni can taken in from parts of the village.
Nearby Plas Berw is a country house which dates back from the early 1600's. As well as the country house there are formal gardens and a deer park. The grounds cover some 8.5 acres and it is a Grade II listed building.[1] Llanfihangel Ysceifiog (St Michael's church), although ruined, is a good example of a traditional Welsh church. It is situated just north of the village.[2]
