Notes

The name of a settlement is usually written as one word in order to distinguish between settlements and topographical features and other features.

The hyphen is used when the Welsh definite article (y/yr) occurs before a final monosyllablic element; hyphens are used before and after the definite article in order to indicate the individual elements and aid pronunciation.
