Caersws
Caersws (; ) is a village and community (Wales), community on the River Severn, in the Wales, Welsh county of Powys; it was formerly in Montgomeryshire. It is located west of Newtown, Powys, Newtown, halfway between Aberystwyth and Shrewsbury. At the United Kingdom 2011 Census, 2011 census, the community had a population of 1,586 – a figure which includes the settlements of Clatter, Powys, Clatter, Llanwnnog and Pontdolgoch; the village itself had a population of slightly over 800. Etymology The name is derived from the Welsh placename elements "Caer-" and "Sŵs". "Caer" translates as "fort" and likely refers to the Caersws Roman Forts, Roman settlement. The derivation of the second element is less certain. Thomas Pennant and later writers note that the fort was the termination of the Roman Road from Chester (via Meifod), the name of the road was ''Sarn Swsan'' or ''Sarn Swsog'' and it is thought that the town and the road share their etymology.

Buckley, Flintshire
Buckley ( ) is a town and community (Wales), community in Flintshire, North East Wales, from the town of Mold, Flintshire, Mold and contiguous with the villages of Ewloe, Alltami and Mynydd Isa.

At the United Kingdom Census 2011, 2011 Census, its community had a population of 15,665. Toponymy Buckley's name appears as ''Bocleghe'' in 1198 and ''Bokkeley'' in 1294. It may mean "clearing of the bucks", from Old English ''bucc lēah''; however, the preponderance of an O vowel in historical forms suggests that the first element could instead be a personal name, ''Bocca''. Another contender is ''bōca'', meaning "beeches", but the fact that beech trees weren't introduced into North Wales until the 18th century argues against this. History In medieval times the area was part of three manors and lordships: Mold, Hawarden, and Ewloe. In 1420, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
