Menai Bridge history

---

The town existed as Porthaethwy for centuries and still has a house which dates from the 17th century. The name derives from Porth (harbour) + Daethwy (the name of a local Celtic tribe) It is likely that a community existed here in Roman times as it is the shortest crossing of the Menai Strait. In the 9th century, St Tysilio lived here as a hermit on Church Island.
