Yr Eifl

Yr Eifl is a mountain on the north coast of the Llŷn peninsula in Gwynedd, north-western Wales. It has three summits, each quite separate from the others, and this is often supposed to be the source of the English name The Rivals. But this is merely an anglicised form of Yr Eifl, meaning "the forks" or "the strides" (Welsh: gafl, plural geifl).

Tre'r Ceiri

Tre'r Ceiri is a hill fort dating back to the British Iron Age, which may have been built around 100 BC - though all the archaeological finds date from AD 150-400, placing the site firmly in the Roman period. It is one of the most spectacular ancient monuments in Wales, located on the eastern-most summit of Yr Eifl, its stone ramparts survive in parts to almost their full height. In modern times it was first brought to popular attention by Thomas Pennant in his Tours of Wales.
