Would have thought they may have included the Wolves into the new name after all the trouble they went to getting them.
 
The strangest thing about watching the TV show about Manor House Wildlife Park was that the OLD cages they were moving the capuchins and lemurs out of were actually bigger than the facilities for the same species at 'Wales ape and monkey sanctuary'.
 
It could have been far worse , other local farms are named Tonspyddaden , Cefngwaunhynog and Dysgwylfa !

I would say the pronunciation si closer to Kev'n er eroo . I understand a limited amount of Welsh but can read it , the alphabet is a bit different but pronunciation nearly always is the same , unlike English .

So what we are agreed on is that a name change is actually a good thing?

I don't think it is, and i can't speak a word of Welsh.


I'm surprised they haven't been given some Welsh Assembly grant for having a Welsh name. Maybe that's why they've changed it to an English name. No doubt they'll have money thrown at them to change it back.

Sorry for getting political, but nothing surprises me where the Welsh langauage is concerned.

However Cefn-yr-erw, is how i came to know it, and Cefn-yr-erw is how it'll remain in my mind.
