Babell
Babell is a hamlet in Flintshire, Wales. It is part of the community of Ysgeifiog. The hamlet takes its name from the Babell Methodist chapel, built in 1836, but the surrounding area was formerly known as Gelliloveday or Gellilyfdy (a township of Ysgeifiog parish). The name Gellilyfdy was recorded in the Domesday book, and possibly means "wych elm wood" (from Welsh ''gelli'', "wood", and ''llwyv'', ''llwyfanen'', "wych elm").〔John Gwenogryn Evans, ''Facsimile & text of the Book of Taliesin'', v1, 1910, xxiii〕 There is a section of the ancient earthwork Offa's Dyke nearby at Llyn-Ddu.〔Sir Cyril Fox, ''Offa's Dyke: a field survey of the western frontier works of Mercia in the seventh and eighth centuries A. D.'', OUP, 1955, p.22〕 Although rural the area is dotted with old copper workings from the 19th century. The notable 17th century antiquary John Jones lived at the hall of Gellilyfdy, to the west of the present-day village. ==References==
