Old Photos of Anglesey / Sir Fôn in North Wales, United Kingdom of Great Britain. Old Photos of Anglesey / Ynys Môn in North Wales.
Anglesey, Beaumaris from above the Cemetery Anglesey is the largest of the islands in the United Kingdom. An ancient land of Celts, abundant with ancient monuments like burial chambers, standing stones, and early settlements. After the Romans left Anglesey many early Celtic saints, like St Seiriol and St Cybi, began religious cells here, and they have all left their mark on Anglesey's history. It has the longest place name in the world, and also the Menai Suspension Bridge, which at the time of its' being built was the longest suspension bridge in the world - designed by Thomas Telford. The shortest sea route to Ireland is from Holyhead, and at one time Parys Mountain was the largest producer of copper in the world. More famous - I suppose - today for the wonderful beaches, the atmosphere of peace, and the slow moving way of life that the Anglesey peoples enjoy. Select from a place name on each side of the page
