City, Vale of Glamorgan
Village in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
City is a small hamlet in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, United Kingdom. It is part of the slightly larger parish of Llansannor, which is also a hamlet.
Location
Origin of the name
The hamlet has never held the status of a city and "City" is not a recognisable Welsh word, so its origin is unclear. There is local speculation that the name came from an Anglicisation of Saith Tŷ, which is Welsh for "Seven Houses".[citation needed]
There is another place in Wales called City, in Montgomeryshire, as well as City Dulas in Anglesey.
Amenities
The hamlet has no shops. It once had a pub called the City Inn, but it has now closed down and been replaced with residential properties.[1] It contains a village hall called Llansannor Community Hall, which is shared with the neighbouring hamlet of Llansannor and the surrounding local area.[2]
