• Caernarfon abstract "Caernarfon (/kərˈnɑrvən/; Welsh: [kaɨrˈnarvɔn]) is a royal town, community and port in Gwynedd, Wales, with a population of 9,615, this figure does not include nearby Bontnewydd or Caethro as they are in seperate wards. It lies along the A487 road, on the eastern shore of the Menai Straits, opposite the Isle of Anglesey. The city of Bangor is 8.6 miles (13.8 km) to the north-east, while Snowdonia fringes Caernarfon to the east and south-east. Carnarvon and Caernarvon are Anglicised spellings that were superseded in 1926 and 1974 respectively.Abundant natural resources in and around the Menai Straits enabled human habitation in the area during pre-history. The Ordovices, a Celtic tribe, lived in the region during classical antiquity. The Roman fort, Segontium was established in about 80AD to subjugate the Ordovices during the Roman conquest of Britain. The Romans and occupied the region until their departure in the 5th century, after which Caernarfon became part of the Kingdom of Gwynedd. In the late 11th century, William I, King of England, ordered the construction of a motte-and-bailey fortification at Caernarfon, to attempt the Norman invasion of Wales. He was unsuccessful and most of Wales remained independent until 1282-3.In the 13th century, Llywelyn ap Gruffudd, ruler of Gwynedd, refused to pay homage to Edward I, King of England prompting the English conquest of Gwynedd, and subsequent construction of Caernarfon Castle, one of the largest and most imposing fortifications built by the English to control Wales. In 1284 the English-style county of Caernarfonshire was established (Statute of Rhuddlan), composed of Caernarfon (the new county town) and its hinterland; and in 1284 Caernarfon was made a borough and market town, and the seat of Edward I's government in North Wales.The ascent of the Tudor dynasty to the throne of England eased hostilities between the English and resulted in Caernarfon Castle falling into a state of disrepair. Caernarfon continued to flourish, leading to its status as a major tourist centre and seat of Gwynedd Council, with a thriving harbour and marina; Caernarfon has expanded beyond its medieval walls and experienced heavy suburbanisation. Its population includes the largest percentage of Welsh-speaking citizens anywhere in Wales. The status of Royal Borough was granted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1963, and converted into the title of Royal Town in 1974.".
