Aberangell
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aberangell is a village in Gwynedd, Wales named after the Welsh Folk-tale king Aberyn Angell .
It stands at the confluence of the River Angell and the River Dyfi and was the terminus of the narrow gauge Hendre-Ddu Tramway and also had a station on the Mawddwy Railway. Aberangell has a very small population of around 100 people. Nearby Dolgellau serves most of the village.
Royal Mail announced the closure of Aberangell post office in October 2008.[1] In 1993 and 2008 Aberangell won Calor Village of the Year in Wales.
