Holyhead is the largest town in the county of Isle of Anglesey in Wales. Holyhead is also a community and a major Irish Sea port, serving Ireland. Holyhead is neither the county town nor actually on the island of Anglesey. Holyhead is located on Holy Island
Holyhead was originally connected to Anglesey via Four Mile Bridge, so called because the bridge was four miles (6 km) from Holyhead on the old turnpike Road. In the mid 19th century, Lord Stanley, a local philanthropist, funded the building of a larger causeway, known locally as The Cobb, it now carries the A5 and the railway line. The A55 dual carriageway runs parallel to the Cobb on a modern causeway.
The Port of Holyhead has a busy ferry port. Stena Line, Northern Europe's biggest ferry company, operates from the port, as do Irish Ferries. Ferries sail to Dublin, in Ireland; this forms the principal link for surface transport from central and northern England and Wales to Ireland. There is archaeological evidence that people have been sailing between Holyhead and Ireland for 4,000 years
With the opening of the railway from London to Liverpool, Holyhead lost the London to Dublin Mail contract in 1839 to the Port of Liverpool. Only after the completion of the Chester and Holyhead Railway in 1850 and the building of Holyhead railway station did the Irish Mail return to Holyhead, operated from London Euston by the London and North Western Railway.
Holyhead is the terminus of the North Wales Coast Line and is currently served by Virgin Trains and Arriva Trains Wales services. Virgin Trains run direct trains to London Euston and Arriva Trains Wales operate direct trains towards Cardiff and Birmingham International via Wrexham and Shrewsbury, and two direct trains per day to Manchester Piccadilly.
Holyhead Port is a major employer, most of the jobs being linked to ferry services to the Republic of Ireland operated by Stena and Irish Ferries. Other significant industrial/transport sector employers in Holyhead include Holyhead Boatyard, Gwynedd Shipping, and Eaton Electrical, with the last of these having seen many job losses in 2009.

Holyhead Mountain Walk, Anglesey Coastal Path, Anglesey Coastal Walks In Wales, UK
Holyhead Mountain Walk, Anglesey Coastal Path, Anglesey Coastal Walks In Wales, UK
Holyhead Mountain Walk was about 7.5 miles in distance. The terrain of the route was a combination coastal, scrub, heath and steep rocky mountain paths plus some short road and lane sections. Although much of the walk was on level ground or moderate slopes, the walking was challenging as the coast, scrub, heath and mountain were rough under foot and there was one steep ascent and descent. Route finding was generally easy with good paths, good waymarking and good landmarks. However, the section of scrub, heath and mountain may prove a little confusing at times, so map-reading skills would be advisable. There were 6 stiles to negotiate.

Places to see in ( Moelfre - UK )
Moelfre is a village, community and electoral ward on the north east coast of Isle of Anglesey in Wales, and on the Anglesey Coastal Path. It has a population of 1,064 as of the 2011 UK census. The meaning of the Welsh language word Moelfre translated in English is 'bald or barren hill', which describes the land behind the village, as seen from the sea. It is the same name as that of the Malvern Hills in Worcestershire and Herefordshire. The village today has 502 households and 5% unemployment. The Royal Mail postcode begins LL72.
The village of Moelfre is 5 minutes from the A5025. The nearest mainline railway stations are in Bangor and Llanfairpwllgwyngyll. These can be reached in under half an hour on the bus services which run through the village.
It was the site of the wreck in 1859 of the steam clipper The Royal Charter near the end of its voyage from Australia to Liverpool. On July 30th, 1862, the screw sloop Enrica, soon to be commissioned as the Confederate States of America warship CSS Alabama sheltered in Moelfre Bay while evading both British customs authorities and the USS Tuscarora, which had been sent to capture or sink her. There were no street lights in the village until well after the Second World War. Moelfre RNLI Lifeboat Station has a distinguished history, including the Hindlea rescue in 1959, when all the crew were rescued. There has been a lifeboat in Moelfre since 1854.
This area is by the large sandy beach Traeth Lligwy and the ancient stone homestead of Din Lligwy. Nearby Ynys Moelfre is a haven for birds, and seals and porpoises may also be seen. In the village there is a bakery, restaurants and a fish and chip shop, and the RNLI Gwylfan Moelfre Seawatch Centre has a small museum, shop and book store. The RNLI Lifeboat Station is open to the public.
Actress Jennifer Ellison was rescued by the RNLI in August 2013. off Moelfre.

Newborough Forest to Ynys Llanddwyn
In this video I take you on a walk from Newborough Forest to Ynys Llanddwyn (Llanddwyn Island), the home of Santes Dwynwen - the Welsh saint of love. Dydd Santes Dwynwent (St Dwynwen's Day) is celebrated on the 25th January.
The island is also a popular location with filmmakers, having appeared in Half Light (Demi Moore) and Clash of the Titans (Sam Worthington).
The walk starts at the car park in Newborough Forest, just south from the village of Newborough. From the car park, follow the road westwards through the forest before joining Llanddwyn beach. From here, follow the shore on your left until you reach the island. Being an island, access to it does depend on the tide (as I found out filming this video!). I tend to walk around the island in a counter-clockwise direction, but the routes come back to the same point, so it's entirely up to you. After walking around the island, re-trace your steps back to the car park.
