Rhossili
Rhossili ((ウェールズ語:Rhosili)) is a small village and community on the southwestern tip of the Gower Peninsula〔''A Guide to Gower'', published by the Gower Society, ISBN 0-902767-23-2〕 in Swansea. It is within an area designated as the first Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the United Kingdom. The village has a community council and is part of the Gower parliamentary constituency, and the Gower electoral ward. == Origin of name == Rhossili probably gets its name in part from the Welsh word for moorland, ''rhos''. The second element in the name may be a reference to a Saint Sulien or St. Sili, but details are not clear. Certainly the present Norman church is dedicated to St. Mary the Virgin. Inside there is a memorial to Edgar Evans who was the first to perish on the Terra Nova Expedition on the return from the South Pole.
