Menai Bridge Parish (Tn/CP)

Statistics

We are sorry but this unit has no associated statistics.

Notes

Richards' lists this unit as a separate township/civil parish from the ancient parish of Llandysilio. Evidence from maps depicting the 1960s and 1970s indicate the Urban District contained only Llandysilio parish, although it is possible it had changed by the 1980s. No boundary change is given in the Census listing for 1971 or before. Therefore the CP status has been made to start after the 1971 Census until more precise detail is obtained.
