Some time ago, during a tour in Wales, I was much struck by the name of a little village in Anglesea. The village is insignificant enough, but it is surely as well described as the most ambitious place could desire. The name runs: "Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch."

"Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch" in northern Wales was one the U.K.'s warmest locations on Tuesday at 21 C.

2015 September 9, Lauren O'Neil, “Weatherman pronounces 'Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch' flawlessly on live TV”, in Canadian Broadcasting Corporation:

A village in Anglesey, Wales, United Kingdom, known for having the longest place name in Europe, and the longest English-language (albeit borrowed from Welsh) settlement name in the world.
