Village in Anglesey, Wales
Human settlement in Wales
Dulas (Welsh pronunciation ⓘ ) or City Dulas [ 1] is a village in Anglesey , in north-west Wales .[citation needed ] It is situated on the A5025 road , near the coast (Dulas Bay ) at only 5 metres (16 ft) above sea level. It is in the community of Llaneilian .
Origin of the name
The village has never held the status of a city and "City" is not a recognisable Welsh word, so its origin is unclear. It may be that the name came from an Anglicisation of Saith Tŷ , which is Welsh for "Seven Houses".
There are two places in Wales simply called 'City': City, Powys and City, Vale of Glamorgan .
