| Amlwch is a market town,seaport and parish in the hundred of Twrcelyn,isle of Anglesey, and the terminal station of the Amlwch and Gaerwen branch of the London and North Western railway, 262 miles NW from London. 20 NW from Bangor and 20 NE from from Holyhead ;situated near the northern extremiity of the island and commanding , on a clear day,a view of the Isle of Man,with the naked eye and part of Cumberland. Amlwch is in the second division of the county head of a petty sessional division,county court district of Llangefni,rural deanery of Twrcelyn and diocese of Bangor. the Church is dedicated to St eleth. the registers date from the year 1633. the living is the vicarage,in the gift of the Bishop of bangor and held since 1888 by the Rev David Lloyd Jones of Queen's college birmingham. Previously to the mining operations , which commenced on the Parys mountains,about the year 1768, this place was only a small fishing village, but since the period referred to, has continued to increase in population and buildings,until it has arrived at the rank of a market town:having many good dwellings,shops and inns - | Off the latter,the "Dinorben Hotel" in the market place,and the "Castle Hotel" Petter Street,may be mentioned as excellantly conducted establisments. During the most flourising state of the mines, it has been ascertained, that from sixty thousand to eighty thousand tons of copper ore were annually extracted,but at present the mines are not worked. H Hills & Son alkali works are carried out near the port. For the accomodation of shipping,the Anglsey Copper Companies excavated a basin or dock in the solid rock,which thought dry at low water, can receive vessles of six hundred tons burden with the flood. It is however greatly exposed and dangerous of access during high northerly winds, a breakwater however contributes greatly to the safety of shipping. About the year 1798, an Act of parliment was obtained to enable the Trustees to enlarge the port and levy harbours dues. The chief brances of trade are manufacture of colours and paint, and brewing and malting. There are also three establisments for the manufacture of tobacco. | National and British schools, and a litery and Scientific Institution are establised here. The market is held on a Saturday. Fairs are held on the 1st Monday in January, April, October and last Monday in December. The area composes 9271 acres of which 82 are water. the population in 1891 was 4443 |
