Geocache Description:


Enw y felin ddŵr yn Bryngwran oedd (Hen) Felin Plas, a phrif bwrpas y felin oedd malu corn. Mae'r hen Felin - a'r hen Odyn Calch - wedi cael eu troi'n dai preifat ac maent i'w gweld yn y pellter o'r fan hon.

Mae hyn hefyd wrth ymyl un o'r tanffyrdd ar gyfer y briffordd trwy Ynys Môn - yr A55. Agorwyd rhan Ynys Môn o'r A55 ar 16 Mawrth 2001, gan groesi Pont Britannia ac osgoi yr hen ffordd A5 (a adeiladwyd gan Thomas Telford o Lundain i Gaergybi a chroesi Pont Menai fyd-enwog). Mae'r A5 yn parhau i fod y briffordd trwy bentref cyfeillgar Bryngwran.

Os oes gennych amser mae gan y tanffordd adlais rhagorol felly ewch â'ch hoots tylluan a mwynhewch eich hun :-)

Gallwch barcio yn y gyffordd lydan am yr ychydig funudau y bydd yn ei gymryd i chi ddod o hyd i'r storfa. Byddwch yn barchus tuag at draffig a thrigolion lleol.

The water mill at Bryngwran was named (Hen) Felin Plas, and the prime purpose of the mill was to grind corn. The old Mill – and the old Lime Kiln – have been converted into private dwellings and can be seen in the distance from here.

This is also right next to one of the underpasses for the major road through Anglesey - the A55.  The Anglesey section of the A55 was opened on 16 March 2001, crossing the Britannia Bridge and effectively bypassing the old A5 road (built by Thomas Telford from London to Holyhead and crossing the world-famous Menai Bridge).  The A5 remains the main road through the friendly village of Bryngwran.

If you have time the underpass has an excellent echo so get your owl hoots out and enjoy yourself :-)

You can park in the wide junction for the few minutes it will take you to find the cache.  Please be respectful to local traffic and residents.
