RuabonRuabon est un village minier et une commune du comté de Wrexham, au pays de Galles. Son nom gallois de « Rhiwabon » est composé de Rhiw, qui signifie « coteau », et de Fabon, une corruption de Saint-Mabon, premier nom de l'église du lieu, d'époque celtique. On trouve parfois encore l'ancienne graphie anglaise Rhuabon. En 2001, plus de 80% de la population était née au pays de Galles, et 13.6% étaient, à des degrés divers, locuteurs du gallois.
Welsh toponymyThe place-names of Wales derive in most cases from the Welsh language, but have also been influenced by linguistic contact with the Romans, Anglo-Saxons, Vikings, Anglo-Normans and modern English. Toponymy in Wales reveals significant features of the country's history and geography, as well as the development of the Welsh language. Its study is promoted by the Welsh Place-Name Society (Cymdeithas Enwau Lleoedd Cymru).
BwlchgwynBwlchgwyn (Bwlch-gwyn) is a village in Wrexham County Borough, Wales, on the A525 road, west of the city of Wrexham and south-east of the town of Ruthin. Bwlchgwyn is part of the community of Brymbo. In the 2011 Census the population of the village was 855. The placename Bwlchgwyn has in the past been translated into English as "White Pass", perhaps referring to the white limestone cliffs in the area. These limestone outcrops were more prominent, in the north of the village on the high ground of Fronheulog and over to Gwynfryn, before the days of quarrying.
