Dyffryn Ardudwy is a village and community in the Ardudwy area of Gwynedd, Wales. The ward had a population of 1,540 according to the 2011 census.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Gwynedd Statistical Profile for Dyffryn Ardudwy )〕 The village of Dyffryn Ardudwy is situated on the A496 coastal road between the towns of Harlech and Barmouth and at the foot of Moelfre, part of the Rhinogydd range. ==History== There are a number of prehistoric cromlechs in and around the village, and they are some of the earliest tombs erected on these islands. Dating from around 4000 BC, the cairn at Dyffryn Ardudwy has two separate burial chambers. Nearby is an avenue which was built by the powerful Vaughan dynasty, (who were instrumental in placing Henry VII of England on the throne in 1485), to connect their family mansion, Cors-y-gedol (The Bog of Hospitality), with the family chapel. The existing mansion was built in 1576. Nearby, the Cors-y-gedol burial chamber stands amidst the site of ancient fields and settlements and the area affords glorious views of Cardigan Bay. The church at Llanddwywe was built on an ancient mound which is at the end of the straight line followed by the road to Corsygedol Hall. This line runs straight and true to a cairn on the side of Moelfre, and it is suggested that this is a prehistoric man-made creation relating to the summer solstice rather than a more recent addition. Dyffryn Ardudwy had a golf club during the early to mid-1900s.〔("Dyffryn Ardudwy Golf Club, Gwynedd" ), "Golf’s Missing Links".〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dyffryn Ardudwy」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
