Bull Bay, Anglesey

The English name is derived from Pwll y Tarw ("the bull's pool"), which is located near the shore close to the bay.

Also, it contains Wales' most northerly golf course which was opened and funded by a local aristocrat in 1913 to a design by Herbert Fowler.

[1] The island of East Mouse lies within the bay, the coastline of which is rocky and contains many caves.

A 32 ft boat named "Eleanor" was first in action in 1871, saving the crew of the schooner "Albion", and in 1877 rescued 20 passengers from the SS Dakota.

In 58 years the Bull Bay lifeboats were launched 41 times saving 63 lives and 7 ships.
