Rhyl, as a noisy river?

Latest comment: 6 years ago1 comment1 person in discussion

When I started looking into the name my understanding of the word 'Rhyl' was a possibly archaic or rare and poetic word for a small, noisy river or brook, related to the etymology of the Rhondda rivers (as in the Song My little Welsh home which refers to "The magic music of the Rhyl"). I also thought there were other places (specificly watercourses) named Rhyl or Yr Rhyl in other parts of Wales but the only academic writing I have found refers exclusively to the Denbighshire town.

Was I wrong? Is "the magic music" referring to the Sun Centre? Please let me know if you can help.

Thanks in advance. Cymrogogoch (talk) 13:28, 6 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Historically not Denbighshire

Once again, Rhyl was in historic Flintshire, not historic Denbighshire. It has only been in (modern) Denbighshire since 1996. Dank Jae 00:43, 18 June 2024 (UTC)Reply
