Marian-glas or Marianglas is a small village and post town in Anglesey, in north-west Wales.[1] It is situated between the larger villages of Moelfre and Benllech and just off the A5025. There is a large caravan park on the edge of the village and several camp sites. However there is no church, pub or shop. It has a memorial to those killed in the two world wars, including a list of 17 seamen from the Merchant Navy.[2]
Marian-glas Hut Group is an unenclosed hut circle (Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found., SH501846). This Scheduled Ancient Monument (Cadw SAM No. AN093) is a roundhouse settlement dating at least back to Roman times. It is also called Cae Marh Hut Group. There are several huts with thick walls, some standing up to 1.4m high.[3][4] Some of the huts walls are now obscured by a thicket, while others are visible as wall lines in the lawns of Marianglas caravan park. The location is indicated on the ground through a signboard by the Ministry of Public Building and Works (which dates the sign to 1962-70).[5]
Academy Award-winning actor Hugh Griffith was born in Marian-glas in 1912.[6]
