Wikipedia
The Borough of Colwyn was one of six districts of the county of Clwyd, north-east Wales, from 1974 to 1996.
It was formed under the Local Government Act 1972 from the following parts of the administrative county of Denbighshire:
- The municipal borough of Colwyn Bay
- The urban district of Abergele
- Parts of the rural districts of Aled and Hiraethog.
The borough was abolished in 1996, when wales was divided into unitary authorities created by the Local Government (Wales) Act 1994. The area of Colwyn was split: a large part going to Aberconwy and Colwyn county borough, (soon renamed as Conwy), and the remainder going to Denbighshire unitary authority.
Colwyn is currently an electoral ward. It consists in part the Community of Old Colwyn with a total population of 4,566
Colwyn is twinned with Konstanz, Germany and Roissy-en-Brie, France.
Usage examples of "colwyn".
Trapped in F-space and under the pirate's beamgun, Colwyn had asked for quarter, and Morgan, as always, granted the plea.
After accepting the pirate's clemency, Gomer Colwyn had drawn a blaster from inside his blouse.
When they were gone, he told Colwyn he'd had the lifeboat's strange-space generator disabled.
Morgan had been eleven the last time they'd seen each other, and Colwyn had been in his twenties—his father's first cousin, his own second cousin.
The inhabitants of the Welsh coast from Colwyn Bay to Borth began to relax.
