Glan Syfynwy

I saw the aerial photo of the bombing, so tried to find the place on a map. Glan Syfynwy is marked on my 1:25000 as Glan-Syfynwy. Location is approx. 51.9354 -4.8108 . I found it hard to find any trace of the craters on google earth.SovalValtos (talk) 11:00, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I'll have a look at the location, but there's probably not much trace now because of forestry/agriculture? Tony Holkham (talk) 11:18, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Looks like trees have masked the craters, from the air at least. I may go and have a look when time. Tony Holkham (talk) 11:23, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

One point I was trying to make was the use or not of a hyphen in the name.SovalValtos (talk) 11:31, 20 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know how reliable this is, having only recently started to learn some Welsh, but hyphenation seems totally arbitrary, and tends to get left out in EN Wikipedia anyway, for consistency. Similarly the circumflex, which in Welsh is important. A village near us (Penybryn) has the signs hyphenated at one end of the village and not the other...
