History
LLANBEDR-GÔCH (LLAN-BEDR-GÔCH), a parish, in the hundred of Tyndaethwy, union and county of Anglesey, North Wales, 2 miles (N. E.) from Llangevni, and 7 (W. N. W.) from Beaumaris. This place, in old writings called Llanbedr-Mathavarn-Eithav, is advantageously situated on the Irish Sea, which constitutes its northern boundary, and forms within the parish a safe and commodious harbour. The church, dedicated to St. Peter, situated on a rocky and rather peculiar eminence in a distant and exposed part of the parish, is a small cruciform structure, chiefly of the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries, with a single bellgable at the west end. In the parish are places of worship for Independents and Calvinistic and Wesleyan Methodists.

LLANBEDRGOCH, a parochial chapelry in the hundred of Tyndaethwy, county Anglesey, 6 miles S.E. of Llanerchymedd, and 6 N.W. of Beaumaris, its post town. For more information, see Llanbedrgoch, Anglesey at Genuki.org.uk
