Tryweryn
The drowning of the Tryweryn valley near Bala was a turning point in the history of Welsh nationalism. The City of Liverpool decided to drown the valley and the Welsh-speaking village of Capel Celyn to create a reservoir. Despite political opposition and widespread protests, the 48 villagers had to leave their homes and the reservoir opened in 1965.
